In Europe we have less and less people. Automation is a must have because we will need those people in areas that cannot be automated.

Transformation will be painful as it is hard to re-train people or get people to do stuff that is not really their forte.

In Europe we already have the technology for everyone to live and retire comfortably. What we don’t have is the governments whose goal is for everyone to do so. I don’t see how more technology would solve a political issue.

I did not write about need for more technology.

What I see is companies failing behind implementing existing well known technologies.

It is people who want to keep doing whatever they were doing for years that later will be angry, because whatever they were doing stopped making sense but they don’t understand it. They will not want to understand things that put them out of job…

yes, automation is necessary and from what I see most non-IT companies are far behind what's possible. Something which is not necessary and imho pretty stupid is replacing idiotic workflow components designed to wash-out responsibility with LLMs and now let the bots run amok (which probably is totally ok with the bureaucrats who designed these workflows in the first place). Most of the AI automation crowd supposedly thinks this is a high value activity - while looking down on the bureaucrats. Which is pretty funny to me...

Sorry, what Europe are you talking about ? I don't think that's true.
