@sisyphus “What do u say?” Humans have always been motivated by seeking challenges, Westward Ho! As you say, what is offered on the phone can be interesting, and I think provide the challenges lacking in everyday life. Challenges of trying/sharing new things, finding things, and mastering the social media game, to name a few.
What does it take, though, to set aside an interesting pursuit for another that must be developed?
Actually, I think we’re about to find out. We’re headed towards having more time on our hands as AI takes over job tasks. Probably shorter work day. With less discretionary income, the focus will shift away from accumulating things (I hope). We will need to turn to the humanistic pursuits to fill time, and find happiness.
The change, no doubt, will be a struggle on all levels.
As for the speed of passing time? Time seems to leap forward when changes are happening.

@triciaot I don't think Ai is going to give us any more time any more than computers have given us less paperwork. Humans are going to find other things to do to feel productive and active.

If I had to sit at a computer all day long reading emails, I would just shoot myself.
