RE: Hive And A Post Labor World

Interesting thoughts here, I agree with your appraisal that many jobs that exist today, will not exist 10 years from now.
The jobs that are particularly vulnerable are in large scale processes where segments of processes can be broken down to machine performable recurrent tasks - like assembly, warehouse picking etc.
Construction jobs will be safe for longer - though at some point new construction may be standardized so that it is broadly machine performable.
I believed there will be increased artisanal markets for human made goods, and small scale agricultural products. I live in a semi-rural county in the Eastern United States - I've noticed that attendance has increased at local festivals, farmer markets, and small events with music. In some segments at least there is an increased desire for regionally produced entertainment and goods.
Here are some very interesting points indeed! I also think that the labour market will not have as many jobs in the near future as it does now... for both good and for worse. But what sort of scares me is the rise of AI. On the other hand, I perceive machine learning and automatisation as positive things. Best regards and plenty of success here on HIVE! 🙂
One of the factors in something like construction is the uneven terrain. It is much easier to bot a warehouse where the climate is controlled and the surroundings static for the most part.
We are seeing unskilled labor and knowledge workers under attack. Skilled labor has a bit of a cushion for now.
