THE AUTOMATION OF THE ECONOMY

The world is on the road to changes and changes. Human beings continue on a scale of progress that seems to have no end. As happened to religion with science, the human being will be buried and supplanted by the endless technological development.

The internet of things, IA, Blockchain ... a whole series of novelties are moving towards making a dream possible: an economy free of sweat and labor. This utopia, where the man would not have to be deluged by a plate of lentils, can turn into a nightmare, because by supplanting the working class it becomes dispensable.

And that's why it runs the risk of disappearing.

As a solution to the previous problem, appears the universal basic income, heroine of our time and savior of the deheated. In other countries, and more in the field of macroeconomics, increasing automation threatens development and survival. Thus, emerging countries, whose main attraction is cheap labor, may see the flow of investments to their lands cut off.

The big capital, then, is willing to undertake its journey, return from the south to the north and return to the western factories. As a result of this, there will be a 360º turn for globalization: before capital traveled from the rich north to the poor south, and now it will make the reverse journey.

This vision, far from being a dream, because countries like Japan, empire of the rising sun, are already launching the engines of their automation. Faced with the unstoppable aging of the country, robots are presented as the great salvation.

The analog world that surrounds us will undoubtedly be shaken by great changes. The binary will spread out his carpet and swallow everything he can ... maybe even to ourselves.
