> But The jobs are going anyway - software is eating the jobs as well as the world This sounds very familiar, it reminds me of the arguments from the technocrats back during the industrial revolution who made the argument that that machines and factories, by making people more efficient would cost people their jobs and would lead to massive unemployment as human jobs would be replaced by machine jobs. With hindsight its not hard to see that they were obviously wrong, the jobs that the machines and factories may have destroyed in the short term were more than made up by the jobs and economic growth that came with it in the long term. What do you think makes your argument different then those of the technocrats?
