    Well, not quite.

    There are plenty of jobs that require smart people which can be automated a lot.

    Business analytics, legal stuff, etc.

    They won’t kill the need for expert human minds yet, but the jobs will need significantly less people overall for the same work, which means less jobs in those areas, which then leads to less people being able to learn those jobs and we are headed towards elite humans VS most humans being struggling slave-consumers.

    At least from a current perspective.

    If universal income or such were a thing all those consumers could focus on creating and learning what they truly like, many turning into experts organically, most likely.

    But no, society is too dumb and rigid to adapt to this reality without everything burning to the ground first
