Reply to comment by bane5454 in A study found that people perceive that robots are replacing human jobs at a greater rate than they actually are. Only 14% of workers say they’ve had their job replaced by a robot. Workers who had been supplanted by a robot estimated that 47% of all jobs have been lost to robots. by Brave_Cycle_8745

You do realize automation just makes most of the population useless. They will have plenty of time but zero wealth.
