"My prediction is that work will be optional. It'll be like playing sports or a video game or something like that," Musk said. "If you want to work, [it's] the same way you can go to the store and just buy some vegetables, or you can grow vegetables in your backyard. It's much harder to grow vegetables in your backyard, and some people still do it because they like growing vegetables."

Work is predicted to become optional within 10 to 20 years, comparable to choosing between buying produce and tending a backyard garden. Widespread deployment of millions of robots will drive greatly enhanced productivity and enable many tasks to be automated. Optimus humanoid robots are intended to become a major share of a company's value despite production delays. Automated systems are expected to outnumber human surgeons within a decade and to deliver medical care exceeding current standards. Overcoming programmed biological limits to lifespan is framed as a solvable engineering problem, with AI offering pathways to significantly extended human longevity.
