alt Hacker NewsIf a machine can do your job; whether it's harvesting corn or filing a TPS report then making a person sit and do it for the purpose of survival is basically just torture.
There are so many better things for humans to do.

For the time being, at least.

I agree in theory. In practice people who are automated out of jobs are not taken care of by society in the transition period where they learn how to do a new job.
Once having a job is not intimately tied to basic survival needs then people will be much more willing to automate everything.
I, personally, would be willing to do mind numbing paperwork or hard labor if it meant I could feed myself and my family, have housing, rather than be homeless and starving.
