This article has a very fearmongering tone, and completely misses the fact that economically, people will still do these jobs for a long time, because replacing them with computers is not an easy or cheap task. Technology has been replacing jobs ever since it existed, and the workers somehow kept up, I see no reason why they wouldn't in future.

In that time the world has seen massive population growth, which exacerbates the basic problem just as the information revolution accelerates it. You can tell yourself whatever you want, but that won't close the massive gap between your perspective and actual reality.
