Society should get rid of computers and construction equipment then. Everyone can have a lot more employees.
As opposed to some dystopia where an exceptionally efficient and low employee organisation makes all the money and there is no/limited distribution of that wealth.
So that “dystopia” can already be considered to be here.
Everything has trade-offs.
Not sure whether this is more common in the US these days. I know for a fact that a lot of buildings in China are constructed this way.
It seems we've made amazing progress on the "software" side of AI, but are still very far behind on the "hardware" side, ie robots.
The main disadvantage about physical objects vs software is that physical objects are not as easily scalable and matter is generally more expensive than bits... so the economy of scale is harder to exploit. But give it some years once the marginal utility of software decreases to a point, I think people will divert more focus (and more importantly capital) on automating hardware stuff.
