> “If they can be automated, they are not necessary.” That’s a pretty interesting take as eventually everything could be automated.

It's great that we're starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel, and will some day achieve a perfect market without humans. If you think about it, all the market really needs is a people to own everything, everything else can be automated, and all those annoying human workers can be eliminated.

I guess that analogy works if the light at the end of the tunnel is like the sun.

I guess what OP meant is automated and with 100% accuracy.

That’s different from what OP said, and I doubt much if anything is automated with 100% accuracy 100% of the time.
