It's a shame to see so many people's livelihood's threatened by change, yet it feels inevitable for the most part. Technology is a dual-edged sword. I am curious to see what types of innovations spur to create more jobs with tech replacing some traditional ones.

I am not sure that will happen, not anytime soon.

The jobs that are being destroyed, for the most part, add little value to society. It is sad because the workers in those jobs depend upon the income. However, at least in the states, we did a good job generating jobs so people have a place to work but we were poor at creating jobs that actually had an impact. A number of years ago, there was a report followed by a book called Bullshit Jobs that really summarized what was taking place.

Things are moving so quickly that most simply cannot keep up their skills. Those who are engineers will be okay. Those who go to school and get a general college degree are probably screwed.
