The real winners of automation don't have jobs.

> This is by far the majority benefiting for automation and speeding its adoption not those who inherited their wealth

Can you elaborate ?

I can't do a better job than the much maligned Charles Murray. To not be accused of being racist in this book he only looked at white Americans: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coming_Apart_(book)

Either I misunderstood you or I'm missing something because it seems to support the opposite of your point.

The "majority" doesn't benefit from automation, they're thrown into more and more meaningless jobs at the bottom of the ladder while the people working on automation and the companies implementing automation are thriving. Wealth inequalities being at an all time high would agree with that

> Meanwhile, real family income for families in the middle was flat. Just about all of the benefits of economic growth from 1970-2010 went to people in the upper half of the income distribution.

I believe what they mean to convey is "the majority of people benefiting from increasing automation are those with higher IQs."

Once you have a million dollars the amount of intelligence needed to earn another million drops drastically.
