Will Automation take away your jobs ?
People are afraid that automation will take away the jobs.
But who wants to work anyway?
In today's world, 90% of the people work because they have to. It's boring, frustrating, and there is no way out.
Only 10% work because they want to.
What would your life look like if you had enough passive income, to do whatever you wanted to do, without worrying about a job to put food on the table?
What if everyone had such a passive income?
What would the world look like if everyone did what they loved to do, instead of doing something called "work" just to put the food on the table?
This can be achieved eventually with automation.
Only with automation.
Food production, construction of houses, manufacturing of clothes, laying of roads, driving people around, managing traffic signals, monitoring health and pretty much every mundane task can be taken care of by the machines.
The machines can grow enough food to last a generation. The machines can build homes to house all the people in the world. If this happens, everything will become so cheap that we can live without needing to work.
Automation takes away the jobs, but it also makes things cheaper, in the long run.
The wealth we have accumulated so far should be enough for us to live forever, without working.
And no one would need a job.
If someone wants to sleep all week, let them.
If someone wants to read all day, let them.
If someone wants to paint, sing songs, just run, or just get high all the time, let them.
How would such a world look like?
Don't we want such a world?
Then we need to build it.
Everything that we do today should be to get to that state of the world, where we are taken care of by the machines, and we can do 24/7 what we love to do. Else there is no point in living.
We may not achieve it in this generation, but eventually we will.
