    humans can be shifted to more creative roles

    It’s a fallacy to assume that there will always be enough jobs for everyone who wants a job.

      Also I’ve met enough people with “ideas” that I reject the premise. Really creative talented people are rare.

      It has been the case for a while now despite same being said for every important technological advancement.

        Thus why it’s a fallacy

        Edit: also it literally hasn’t. There have been many times in human history where there simply weren’t enough low-skill jobs for everyone who needed a job to support their family. See the Great Depression.
