In the twilight of human labor: Automation, work in which human becomes superfluous, and leisure as an exposition that controls people

This study explores the relationship between work, digital capitalism and leisure and aims to examine this relationship through the question of "Why can't capitalism create a post-labor time?" The conclusion that the study aims to achieve is that capitalism contradicts both a process in which work is reduced due to full automation and a change where leisure time can replace work. This paper will therefore examine why capitalism prevents such a possibility in three chapters. The first section will examine how capitalism has created body politics and communities that center the work ethic. This chapter will explain that capitalism has established a system of shame that punishes non-working people and bases this on Divine Laws. The second chapter will examine why capitalism has suspended the possibility of a full automation where automation and artificial intelligence can now replace production to include human cognitive abilities. This chapter will defend the argument that capitalism creates an algorithmic governance rather than the liberation of labor, the spread of welfare, and leisure start to belong to the majority. The third section will examine how leisure time exists in capitalism as a time in which work is extended. It will do this around the concept of exposure by emphasizing the relationship of leisure time with work, consumption, discipline, savings, money, and calendar. This study aims to examine why both leisure time and full automation are morally, economically, and technically impossible in capitalism through these sections. This impossibility is essential to understand the future crisis of capitalism, as it creates certain privileges, dualities, and boundaries that define representation, politics, and power.
