I think the latter view is usually held by people who know they won't experience productivity gains from automation.
Say someone who is has driven a taxi all their life or driven a forklift. They can appreciate how adding air-conditioning to their vehicle allows them to drive in hotter days, therefore they can do more work. But automating their whole job away with autonomous vehicles doesn't benefit them, so they don't want it.
Personally, I think those people can't be picky about their jobs. If you do something that is automatable, you will be out of a job sooner or later. When that happens, don't get mad and go find another soon-to-be automated job.

- guhidalg 1y agoThe ones where human interaction is the point. Education, bar tenders, nursing, tourism, for example.
- mschuster91 1y agoJapan is moving fast on a few of these, particularly as their population is rapidly aging.
- bmitc 1y agoThe unfortunate reality is that humans seem to have this innate desire to get rid of ourselves. I see us trying to automated everything. To what end, I do not know.
