Heh. Whats to stop people from indulging in more procreation, if such a level of automation is ever achieved? Or is it that the novelty of sex will wear off and peopoe will devote time to other pursuits, e.g. music/ the arts?
I don't think most people won't suddenly indulge their creative side, more likely they'll just behave much as they would if they had a day off, at least for the first year or so (video games, pizza, alcohol, etc.). After that, who knows. Kind of like someone's just retired, except for the whole population at relatively the same time... like no idea what would happen there lol. Definitely a societal shift at a massive scale.
I'm quite certain about one thing though: we'll get a hell of a lot more dank memes.
Probably a lot of crime would occur is my guess.
