Robot Jobocalpyse Is Coming

An estimated 70% of remaining jobs will be automated (i.e., taken over by robots) within the next 30 years:

"I believe we are the inflection point where robotics are going to change everything you know and do," says Ben Way, author of Jobocalypse, a book about about the rise of the robots.

That sounds wonderful, right?

When just about everything the ruling class needs done can be done by robots, the 99% will become irrelevant ... truly useless eaters. I'm sure they will scour the 99% for those gifted children they will need to keep their giant machine running, but the rest of us will be fair game for autonomous killer robots.

This cannot be stopped, but it WILL be the worst thing that ever happened to humanity.
