What we need more of is new forms of entertainment. We are already drowning in options to distract us from reality. Ever consider what it would like to be an author? Imagine your book versus every other book in the store. Same thing with music. Same thing with video games. Especially once Steam let anyone publish, there's no shortage of video games to play. Or look on itch.io for the library of indie games. Or remember Kongregate with tens of thousands of free flash games? Or every game system ever with stuff you can still play with an emulator.
The soul of everything is already ground down to a flavorless grey paste and it'll get real obvious when AI gets better at whatever art is and instantaneously creates whatever passes for quality entertainment on a whim. Is it still entertaining at that point? I can't decide. One must imagine Homer happy.
