What if it works the other way round? What if automation eliminates most, if not all, jobs, and thus reduces the appeal of living in cities where work is easily found? What if land remains expensive in urban areas, but the economic support for people to afford it isn't there?
What if automated delivery makes it cheaper to deliver to anywhere, so that it becomes easier and more practical to live far apart from others?
