I have now watched both videos and found both interesting,
especially Andrew McAfee's presentation. First I want to point out that I
believe the technology will have a major and positive impact in the future when
it comes to jobs and development. We should not be afraid of the pace of
technological change, but see the possibilities that technology can create instead,
if this is done properly.
So, as it stands now and will be with the help of technology, droids are doing and will do many of the jobs that humans used to do, we are in a phase where Droids have taken over many of the jobs for various reasons, including to saving time, more accuracy, less errors in such production and less cost seen in the long term. This can still never be done unless the human direct impact and human control of the labor process.
What may be worrying is if instead of using the time that you save by droids doing the jobs to try to develop ourselves and spend more time doing something useful, many might be unemployed in this case and this will suddenly be a problem. Economically, many people will be poorer and in this case this will leads to different consequences. In other ways, this contributes to the fact that many are getting richer, which in turn creates unbalanced society

Another important aspect we should consider as
well when we are discussing this
is earth's population and how it is constantly increasing. We need in this case, more
jobs; there must be
more to do and not the opposite. This becomes complicated if one does
not take into account various aspects
while development takes place quickly, but we must also at the same
time see the possibilities with this anyway and try
to take advantage of it.
