I've been thinking about this recently myself. Even as a developer, how long is it before a computer can make it's own software? I know we don't consider ourselves in the direct line of fire of automation, but I guess it depends on what sort of development you do. The article mentions accountants, and most accounting can probably be automated, but there is an element of creativity in software and accounting at the top of the field, which I don't think will be easily replaced by machine, but that is only the top 20%. A minimum salary and everybody having access to the same services and goods free of charge seems easy on the surface, but what happens with things like real estate where we are truly limited in how many homes can fit on a specific bit of real estate. Is there no more 'upward mobility'? Will poorer people always be stuck and rich people have little risk of losing their position? Is there a way we can all truly live in a fair and equal utopia?
