Linus Ekenstam argues that money may become less relevant in the near future as automation advances.
He quotes a longer thread about the transition phase needing less and less capital, then points to domestic robotics as a real-world example: household tasks are already disappearing in some areas, and his own robot lineup has expanded from a Xiaomi vacuum cleaner years ago to multiple indoor robots, a window-cleaning robot, and a 50,000-sq-ft robotic lawn mower. The broader claim is that these changes are accelerating fast.
