@starsandrobots I wrote about this a lot for a while, and to be clear I've been wrong so far, but here's a precis:http://techcrunch.com/2013/06/01/after-your-job-is-gone/ … -
@rezendi which part of this is yet to be borne out? -
@starsandrobots The theory that a jobless class has been created. Adjusting for demographics, the US employment rate is mostly unchanged. -
@starsandrobots The more nuanced theory is that tech is moving all employment from linear-rewards Mediocristan to power-law Extremistan. -
@rezendi er, missed this in mentions til now. What's meant by Mediocristan/Extremistan? -
@starsandrobots For your reading list: The Black Swan and especially Antifragile by@nntaleb https://books.google.com/books?id=5E5o3_y5TpAC&pg=PA91&lpg=PA91&dq=antifragile+mediocristan&source=bl&ots=iHKC0TbKL8&sig=eIU1V2_OwRYZNUoCfxrFUdihSUo&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwix_9Pvlu_KAhVL2GMKHUl0CvkQ6AEIHDAA#v=onepage&q=antifragile%20mediocristan&f=false … http://www.wou.edu/~shawd/mediocristan--extremistan.html … -

@starsandrobots Basic Income starts making more and more sense, eh?! The Swiss will vote on it in June this year. -

@starsandrobots Debate seems similar to how it was first framed b/w Ricardo (Principles 1817) and Babbage (Economy of Machinery 1832) -
@starsandrobots Martin Ford's 2009 Lights in the Tunnel argues this was true but now we're seeing exponential growth in the production curve

@starsandrobots Or a few people will have jobs and lots of people won't. I'm curious about this too, because inequality lock-in seems likelyThanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
