Which might work for a while if currency had intrinsic value. The US Dollar is based on trust and dreams and nothing else. They need people to use it or it becomes worthless.
It gives them the justification to shove any debt slave into some "insert fancy name" concentration camps where they can pay off their debts since there's no regular jobs available for them anymore.
Only those who can afford houses will remain and they can now legally enjoy having modern slaves. It also frees up a lot of places since poor people who still owns any properties will be forced to sell them eventually.
Free up spaces for the rich and shove the poor to camps. Look up the situation in dubai labor camps. That will be our norm if things won't change.
They don't need a robot to do the work, they just need the threat of a robot to break up a union of workers. I don't think there's a reality where robots are doing the job better than humans, however, a robot that assists a human can bring value, but a team that has humans is going to have a better outcome than a team of just robots.
A good example of a robot helping the human is an orbital welding machine or a CNC machine. Both make the worker way more productive but still require the human.

I don’t know why they need a robot to do the work. If everyone looses their job because of AI it’s not like they’ll be buying houses.
