Technology is awesome, the best thing in the world... Until it takes your job and makes your college education that you and your parents invested a fortune in obsolete, that is.

I've read theories that alternative economies (probably not using the right term there though) will spring up in response to automation...people will shun automated labels and companies BECAUSE of the fact that robots do the jobs
automation, in theory, should make products considerably cheaper to produce, which should be passed onto the consumer, some think that because of human nature, companies will attempt to keep or even increase prices, thus destroying their customer base and folk turning to human-produced companies
just something interesting i read, refute if need to
Answered your own question. That **** is humiliating cuz. Anyways, I never understood how some of these cats were so nice at the sign flippage. They out there really grinding, smiles on their face, doing the quan X macarena whilst the sign in the air, big flips, no drops, etc. Then on the opposite corner you got some bum leaning against a light post with the sign, not moving a muscle. Is it a sign flipping training class, or some secret night school program. I'm always confused AF by this.How is a robot replacing one of the most humiliating jobs out there?
They probably realized they don't qualify due to the lack of fluid hips.

I'm rather late to the question-asking party, but I'll ask anyway and hope. Have you thought about the possibility of technological unemployment, where we develop automated processes that ultimately cause large unemployment by performing jobs faster and/or cheaper than people can perform them? Some compare this thought to the thoughts of the Luddites, whose revolt was caused in part by perceived technological unemployment over 100 years ago. In particular, do you foresee a world where people work less because so much work is automated? Do you think people will always either find work or manufacture more work to be done? Thank you for your time and your contributions. I’ve found research to be a largely social endeavor, and you've been an inspiration to so many.
Answer:
If machines produce everything we need, the outcome will depend on how things are distributed. Everyone can enjoy a life of luxurious leisure if the machine-produced wealth is shared, or most people can end up miserably poor if the machine-owners successfully lobby against wealth redistribution. So far, the trend seems to be toward the second option, with technology driving ever-increasing inequality.
self driving cars would already have all that jazz taken care off
It's frustrating driving at night when you see a car without their taillights on...The driver is oblivious and getting pissed because everyone is trying to signal them to turn them on, but no. These people think just because they have a new car, everything turns on automatically.
