Assuming that humans could remain as decision-makers at any level (e.g. defining what type of life humans want to enjoy, what humans would like the world to look like, etc.), the need will always exist to specify (and most importantly give feedback on) those goals, objectives and to keep refining them, or adapt to new preference frontiers.

The above level of control can definitely have a meaningful and significant impact in the economy, again, subject to the decisions that humans care about.

I would say that we call the above "programming" or machine learning in today's world.

Assuming that humans could remain as decision-makers at any high level (e.g. defining what type of life humans want to enjoy, what humans would like the world to look like, etc.), the need will always exist to specify (and most importantly give feedback on) those goals, objectives and to keep refining them, or adapt to new preference frontiers.

One could argue that the above constitutes work, and can definitely have a meaningful and significant impact in the economy, again, subject to the decisions that humans care about and retain control over.

I think we call the above "programming" or machine learning (automatic programming from data) in today's world.

Assuming that humans could remain as decision-makers at any level (e.g. defining what type of life humans want to enjoy, what humans would like the world to look like, etc.), the need will always exist to specify (and most importantly give feedback on) those goals, objectives and to keep refining them, or adapt to new preference frontiers.

The above can definitely have a meaningful and significant impact in the economy to the extent.

Assuming that humans will remain as decision-makers at any level (e.g. defining what happiness is, what type of life we want to enjoy, what we would like the world to look like, etc.), the need will always exist to specify (and give feedback on) those goals, objectives and to keep refining our notion of happiness. This can be understood as work.
