Well, RIP to the Gig economy hopefully robots get here soon. Cause I can't see the market surviving this.
Its more likely you ll see drivers forming shell contractor companies so they can still work for both uber and lyft etc
But what happens to people when the robots have all of the jobs?
People think it's not going to affect them because their job is special. It's just a matter of a few years difference, everyone's job will be affected. Even computer programming.
Why am I so sure about this? Because there is a very large research effort going on aimed at AGI and they _are_ making progress. And the potential rewards are enormous. And the hardware capability is available now.
A few years is probably hopelessly optimistic.
I think it is possible that we will need a new paradigm for society, since jobs are a core aspect of the current one.
