The future of employment/unemployment.
Don't worry about the Chinese taking your grandchildren's jobs.
Automation will do it instead.
But who will make and repair the robots this clever and reliable? Surely there is work to be done doing that.
Yes. Robots will do it.

ChatGPD just passed a law school exam. AI and robots will be doing most things in the future. Maybe we can concentrate on taking better care of our children insuring that everyone gets a loving environment. I guess I hope for a big over encompassing society that insures child, sexual abuse does not happen. For a long time not that long ago, humans were hunter gatherers made up of about 200 people. I bet we looked out for each other better then.
Or maybe AI will take over the world and we will be eliminated. It’s a mystery.
Currently people are paid to work. If AI and robots do the work, what are people supposed to do for money. They’re still going to need food, clothing and shelter, not to mention toys and drugs. As has been noted before, tech is an even bigger job killer than globalization.
It’s not just AI. Before word processor software, there was a large job category called “secretary“.
In the early 1980s, I worked for a startup company called Metaphor Computer Systems. We made a system for high-end corporate product executives. The system was designed to be used without the keyboard most of the time; the keyboard could be hidden inside the monitor.
This hidden keyboard feature was hugely important according to the marketing department because back then there were two categories of executives who did not want to be seen with a keyboard on their desks: older men (who were afraid of being mistaken for a secretary), and younger women (who were afraid of being mistaken for a secretary).
