Population control will become very important soon.

Also Automation still creates maintenance and production jobs, but the problem is that essentially, dumb jobs will be replaced with smart jobs, and that is a problem in its own.


I mean the entire point of automation in the first place is that a single machine can do the work of a much larger group of people, so it's not like there's a 1:1 job replacement thing even if you assumed the skills are transferable.

I look at my office and half the people there could be replaced with better accounting software and a printer.


my job right now at work is to help with the procurement portion of an SAP conversion which we will use to get rid of a bunch of buyers making between $80-120k and replace them with outsourced Indian labor that makes about $10k a year, but will be possible because we are really simplifying it.

so its also taking what were once high paying thinking jobs and replacing it with answering yes/no questions that anyone that can read at an 8th grade level can do.
