First of all, I don't want to be poor. I know many of you are thinking something along the lines of "I am smart, I was doing fine before, so I will definitely continue to in the future".

That's the unearned hubris I was referring to. We got very lucky as programmers, and now the gravy train seems to be coming to an end. And not just for programmers, the other white-collar and creative jobs will suffer too. The artists have already started experiencing the negative effects of AI.

EDIT: I understand you guys might not agree with my comments. But don't you thinking that flagging them is going a bit too far?

I'm not sure what you are saying exactly? Are you saying we live for the work?

The way the current system is set up we rely on work to make money. If jobs get automated away, how will we make money then? We aren't ready for a post-work world.
