How To Cure "Cannibal Capitalism" | Nancy Fraser | TMR

Things are going to get worse as AI begins taking even more jobs
like warehouse work which is often simple and repetitive but good
paying.  Soon those jobs will be gone forever like the many jobs
in auto mfg which are now done by robots. Even robots re losing
jobs as IA robots can do several jobs instead of being dedicated
to just one.  An AI robot can follow a vehicle down the assembly
line and do several different jobs meaning fewer robots are needed
and forklift drivers will go the way of the horse and buggy as 
self-driving vehicle software evolves.  So perhaps a universal basic
income may become necessary or, if not then some form of
population reduction. Stay alert, eternal vigilance is the price of
freedom.
