Demolocke’s Agenda Article/Post Caveat (Read First Please: Click the Link)
In recent articles and by observation more and more things are being assumed by technology such as the recent article in the Wall Street Journal, i.e., Amazon Conducts First Commercial Drone Delivery. Lets add in another article about Uber going to San Fran to start using a driverless Uber vehicle to take passengers on.
My question is simple, “What happens to the employee who drives the uber car and what happens to the delivery guy who delivers those Amazon packages?” Ever hear of logistics, there is a ton of logistics involved in replacing employees, contractors and temps with automated technology like all the tellers in my bank being replaced by more sophisticate teller machines. Hmmmmm!
I know that these companies will say that these lost jobs will be replaced by jobs created through the techno-replacement effort but really and I suspect that for every job assumed by technology that only one job per ten lost jobs will actually be a new job and that brings up a ton of other questions as to wage levels and so on. Is anyone out there even aware of and taking discovery actions and research on this new phase of the technology revolution?
Here is one for you, “If the population is increasing and the jobs shrinking or being sent elsewhere not in the US, where do those displaced people find new jobs and where do they find an income to survive?” Their use to be about five tellers in my bank, now there is one “Wall Mart Type Greeter” in the lobby and maybe one person on a desk, say what?
I use to like technology but in the last ten years, for me, it has become so convoluted and glutted in our society that humanity itself has been manipulated into the second seat letting such tech lead us instead of us controlling it, like shy-net in the terminator movies or the matrix in those movies.
Here are the two articles that triggered my mindless meandering ways:
