I think about this guy a lot. Do you think the concept of outsourcing your job to a third party will increase as "work from home" is further established?

I also think about the judge calling in as a cat. It’s easy to believe him when he says he’s not a cat. But in 2 years it will be the cat calling in in the appearance of the judge. “I’m not a cat”. Yeah, right.
I jest, but I think you get my point about someone else’s likeness.
Now switching to talking about death, sorry. I’ve just been reading about people whose bodies are found in their apartments 1-3 years after they died. One primary reason this tragedy happens is because rent is paid automatically from their account, and there is enough for years.
I imagine more automations and less need for human involvement. Now suppose a person is outsourcing their job, money is being deposited in their account and a third party is using their likeness in zoom calls.
The market will not care if they are alive or dead. It still works.
Anyway, that is how my brain goes from cat humor to dystopian nightmarish futures. Again, sorry about that.
