Re: Technologists agree on robotics/AI tech impact, disagree on social/economic impac

In the late nineteenth/early 20th century the experts were concerned about how big cities were going to deal with the ridiculous amount of horse poop from all of the carriage traffic. Luckily, our fearless engineering forefathers solved that problem.

Technology has changed a lot in the past 100 years and so far Mr. Market and friends have done a reasonable job managing the economy and employment levels with continued technological change. I suspect that this will continue to be true.
