So, takeaway:
-Most jobs are computer-solvable, given enough time and resources.
-From a cost-benefit standpoint, people have strong incentives for automating higher-paying jobs than lower.
-People automating work and people allocating funds to automate said work will reap rewards.
-We as a whole really need to think about a world where a majority of people don't work and figure out how society works and maintains stability given those constraints. (Basic income, etc.)
-For those who haven't settled on what they want yet, they should prolly find work in something that's hard to solve by a robot (that also hopefully provides meaning and sustenance).
