The jobs will disappear but that is not a bad thing. We won't need cashiers just like we won't need drivers. Why let people do a job that's essentially useless. Of course the transition will be painful but ultimately with
#UBI people would be free to do more fulfilling things.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

@Amazon: 'Go' is the preferred name of the proposed University, I think. Considering the 'long tail' meme, seems University is finished. (Image: technical weave)@Apple (iTunesU)pic.twitter.com/ZM0A2BXPw4

Whats the poem about i didnt say anything until they came for me? Everyone needs to take a long hard look at this and start thinking. If everyone gets replaced, who will buy things? Is UBI the answer? Should the gov tax automation? How would you tax this?

Shopping is still work. Removing the checkout process saves like 5 minutes. The process of finding products and making purchasing decisions is the real chore. If they really want to change retail, they have to change how people interact with the environment and the merchandise.

1)won't happen Bcause convenience stores R low-margin, 2)it won't catch on because of glitches 3) eventually people will wake up to what's been stored about them(maybe another hack/crisis & 4)not everyone can afford or wants smartphones. I still insist on paper bills for security

The same as it’s always meant. Automation has eliminated MANY MANY jobs. This is nothing new.
