That seems like a transitory problem already solved by government programs such as extended unemployment and adult training programs.
The problem is still more people's willingness to cede the status of their current jobs to take up new ones. That's still the hardest part.
- lamename 2y agoI'd argue that your point is only true if the amount of money the government gives out per month per person vastly increases.
- pj_mukh 2y agoYup. Political problems irrelevant to the tech. Also a lot more attainable/manageable than an expansive permanent UBI.
- soco 2y agoThat is a quite pervasive thought in the tech industry nowadays: we break everything, let the politics/society/aliens fix it. What would you say if the politics/society/aliens decide to block said tech, stopping the problem at the source? It's not a given, that techbros can do anything with impunity.
