Also who the hell knows when automation takes over. Back in the 80s AI was gonna take over everything, in the 90s they thought all software would be developed solely in India, the 2010s was the decade of self-driving-cars-are-just-around-the-corner. The future will get here but we have no idea when, and capitalism is highly effective at dealing with the details.
