How about a good engineer who wants to feed their family?
My opinion, and it's just that, is the corporations are betting on the robots advancing fast enough where it won't be an issue there aren't new 'good engineers' to follow the current batch. Probably to their detriment but by the time that happens humans will be tasked to only perform the work the robots simply can't physically do so their agency in the matter will no longer matter, you either install 13.6 screws/min or you are replaced with someone (or something) who can.
Happy days...

- kcplate 1y agoI am sure there were a lot of proud telegraph operators back in the day who refused to adapt to radio because it made it too easy for “lower skilled” people to communicate over long distances. I imagine some were critical of their fellow telegraph operators who embraced the new tech. My guess is that these proud folk at some point started wondering why no one was sending them messages anymore and why their income dried up. Don’t make the mistake of thinking that you are in the telegram business and not the communications business.
