    I’m sure glad we developed technology just to avoid paying one person to drive that truck. This is progress and will not have knock on consequences. We should celebrate this.

      This, but unironically. Automation is a good thing, and every driver who loses their job over this drives the necessity of finding post-automation solutions that much closer to the breaking point.

        Oh yes, I’m sure our current socioeconomic systems will get right on finding post automation solutions. That’ll happen real soon now. I mean, it’ll have to happen, right? We won’t just let all the jobs dissolve away so that shareholders get richer, right? That would be crazy to do that. I can’t imagine a society that would possibly do that, could you?

        Yes because losing your job to robots is fun, rich will be richer and poor will be more miserable
