[1] Some post-work theorists imagine the complete automation of all jobs, or at least the takeover of all monotonous, rule-based, predictable and repetitive (and thus unworthy of humans) tasks in the future by ultimately cheaper, faster, more efficient, more reliable and more accurate intelligent machines.

[12][13] Some theories of a post-work society focus on challenging the priority of the work ethic, and on the celebration of nonwork activities.
[14] These theories also underscore the importance of developing community-based activities and self-improvement programs to fill the void left by traditional labor structures.
