I agree. Automation is getting to the point where it isn't just replacing manual jobs but now it is going to replace most creative jobs.
And it isn't going to be a high tech utopia, because a small group at the top is going to capture 95% of the wealth generated.
I would predict serious social unrest. The problem is people won't understand why they don't have jobs, so they will blame x country or z group for their problems which will lead to extremism.
I would argue many of the major historical events in the US, such as civil war, great depression, WW2, great recession were actually connected to automation requiring a reset of society.
