Automation and future of our society

Several people are expressing concerns recently that automation displace more jobs, that the new opportunities will not catch up the pace of lost jobs, and that the income inequality will grow.

I agree will all these points, and if we don't do anything about it, there could be a lot of turmoil in the future.

On the bright side, I think our civilization is in a position where we can afford to adopt policies which will make the income inequality irrelevant.
