“Oh Kchamps that’s so dark!!” It is nothing compared to the reality today! Both of these scenarios are actually preferable outcomes to the reality of end of life care in America today. Good end of life care is expensive. Because we lack adequate elder care infrastructure, it enables hospice fraud. Seniors are sold hospice improperly, denied curative care, and neglected (crater size bedsores, maggots in feeding tubes), drugged up to make them easier to manage (see screenshot), or just outright left alone while Medicaid checks roll in to the hospice providers Are you sure you will have someone looking out for you? Will you have the money to pay for good care, which only is getting more scarce and expensive? We can (hopefully) scale robots and hold them to high standards of care. Or scale out dignity in death so no one has to live this way. Both seem far preferable to me than the reality today. https://www.propublica.org/article/hospice-healthcare-aseracare-medicare

I am in a work stopping debate with my co author on the productivity book because he thinks my original idea of killing the non productive is too dark and will result in unsympathetic characters no one likes. We as a society have abided and abetted what I would view as actual torture of seniors for years and years and everyone is fine and chill with it. So

To be fair some elders make it tough to take care of them not picking sides tho If bots are upscaled for elderly care might be best for everyone
