Jeff Bezos says ‘millions of people’ will be living in space by 2045—and robots will commute on our behalf to the moon
No one enjoys the dreaded commute to work, and by 2045, Amazon founder Jeff Bezos predicts we’ll have robots to do that for us. After all, in his vision we’ll be venturing to other planets for our 9-to-5's.
Amazon founder and CEO Jeff Bezos expressed optimism about humanity's future in space during the Italian Tech Week 2025. He foresees millions of people living in space by 2045, primarily for their own desires. Robots will take over mundane tasks, including commuting and working on the moon, making space travel more cost-effective than sending humans.
Bezos dismissed the concerns surrounding AI-driven job displacement, emphasizing that technological advancements will continue to enrich our lives. Other tech leaders, including Sam Altman and Elon Musk, also predict significant advancements in space living and employment opportunities within the next decade.
