As tech driven automation is set to eliminate nearly half of the worlds job's by 2055 including bank tellers, insurance underwriters, and loan officers, TechCrunch asks the question of how we avoid class polarization and political instability.
We have faced economic and social revolutions before, with the invention of the steam engine and mass production, and, just like the Luddites were sabotaging machinery in the Industrial Revolution, technology has always been considered a threat to social stability. Many may be claiming that this time is different, and they are completely right. Every time has been different, but we have still managed to transition successfully.
