It is not going to be better. At least not anytime soon and not without significant mindset shift. People are not getting more intelligent, but the jobs evolve to require more and more intelligent and versatile people to be productive. For example, in the past you could spend a lot of time training to do a job, which you then performed for the rest of your life. This lets less intelligent people be productive in jobs they normally would not be able to do (intelligence defined as ability to handle novel problems). This is no longer an option. Another problem is that companies become better at detecting who is and who is not productive. There is still a lot of possibility of improvement and this should be scary to people, because in my understanding most people in most organisations are unproductive. Given that we can't stop the progress, I think it is important to start thinking how to deal with masses of people that will never be able to find place in the new market. In the past, they would be used as peasants and slaves to do marginally profitable jobs but this is no longer available except for special cases (like cab or delivery drivers) that are going to be vanishing soon. For some reason people call this socialism and put a negative stigma on it. I like to think it is a necessary for the future of our civilisation.
