RE: The rise of the robots – will your job be gone in coming years?

in #science6 years ago

If there are no human workers, before long there are also no companies to use AI. People need money to buy from the companies for them to survive. So if we cross a tipping point in the balance between work done by humans vs automated, there will be economic collapse, forcing governments to step in. What response they will have is likely to vary by country. But ultimately there needs to be a means of exchanging productive value for things and experiences people value, or you wind up with a lot of misery and instability.

Very wise comment @indigoocean

Now question is: will we "humans" find a way to avoid this scanrio?
