Had a conversation about this very topic today. If some dystopian future becomes a reality I don’t think it will be war, disease or pestilence that brings it about. Rather it will be the millions that don’t have an income stream as the need for semi and unskilled labor vaporizes.
Autonomous vehicles will make drivers obsolete, that includes cars, trucks, buses, boats, cranes, forklifts, etc.
I can invision a future in my industry of construction when modularization becomes more prevalent and factory assembly of the modules is more conducive to automation.
Farming is an easy one, only waiting for the economics to tip the scale in the right direction.
The service industry is already there, it will only be a change in scale.
That’s what worries me.
