FRED

Written by Paul Gamlowski


After decades of interactive training, FRED, a 'fully robotic edition developed,' AGI was mass-produced, causing worldwide unemployment but equally implementing global UBI for anyone to follow their dreams.


During a quarterly meeting, a financial consultant gave a presentation to the FRED board:


"Workflow is up, but FRED output is drastically lower than human workers. It's a mystery."


Cheryl, one of FRED's founders who was no longer in charge but remained on the board, chuckled.


"What's so funny?" asked the consultant.


"Busywork."


"What?" The consultant raised an eyebrow.


"FRED learned from most of us to look busy but not really work."
