Show Notes
They’re back after a break — and the comeback starts with a real-world “Musk economy” moment: Demian’s Starlink dish dies after a power outage, and a Grok-powered support bot replaces the entire kit in seconds, delivered the next day. That single experience becomes the lens for the episode: what happens when AI doesn’t just answer, but acts?
From Tesla’s near-autonomous service workflows to the rise of screen-clicking agents that can replace most digital work, the conversation escalates into “levels of abundance” — from removing chores, to proactive health support, to AI helping you manifest bigger life goals. Then comes the harder question: if the doing disappears, what happens to meaning, identity, ethics, and even consciousness?
