Imagine if the Renaissance, the collapse of Rome, and the industrial revolution all happened at the same time. I think that's where we're headed on the timeline

Also the devaluation of human labor will be akin to the automobile replacing horses

But the displaced horses didn't have to "earn a living" like the humans do...

Well, a lot of them were work horses, and their owners decided that the best way for them to provide value was by becoming pet food. There was a bit of a horse holocaust :/

Oy. Hope this is where the analogy breaks down... 😮

I hope so too! but I don't think the systems we have in place are ready for this big of a change yet

I don't think the systems we have are ready either. 

I'm concerned about the toll this transition will take (and is already taking) on humans. 

As another caster once put it: "Who's solving the need to make a living for actual living breathing humans?"

I don't know the answer to that question.
