This is basically the UN's idea of establishing what is essentially a utopia by that year. Has been around since before the AI hype. 2030 is also the year where the WEF representative Ida Auken referenced in his infamous essay titled "Welcome to 2030. I own nothing, have no privacy, and life has never been better", written in 2016.

Personally I believe this to be a plausible timeline for the elimination of jobs and technology oriented society. If this timelime proves to be true does that mean this trickling roll out of technological advancement has been going on for longer than believed? Have the powers that be been measuring society's readiness for this transition?

The existence of present technology has me genuinely questioning the nature of this reality. It almost feels like we have been being prepared for this for a long time, each step being taken faster and with greater impact on our lives. We went from radio, to television, to computers, to internet, to smart phones. Now that phones have pretty much reached a plateau it seems like we'll be going into VR and AR, then finally FDVR.
