With the way everything is going these days, from stores cutting cashiers out of the equation and going with self-checkout, and now there is rumors of this happening to more stores and restaurants, where the cooking, serving and more is going to become an automated process one day. Those jobs will eventually go away, and maintenance jobs will spring up, but not everyone will qualify for that.

Anyway, what do you think would happen if everything from your work, how you buy products, etc, is all an automated process in the future? How will people survive if there are no traditional jobs anymore and everything is either run by robots and AI?

I mean, it would be cool to be able to go to a store and not have to deal with employees asking what you want, or if you need help. And it also defeats the anxiety of having to order food at a fast food place, or a restaruant in general.

Do you think automation will become a huge thing in all of our lives in the future?
