The majority of jobs lost, I think about 85%, have been lost to automation. And that is just the tip of the iceberg we are heading for. The only suggestion I have seen to deal with the massive loss of jobs we are heading for is to implement an “automation tax” and use it to fund UBI for those that are displaced by automation.

Stanford has and excellent series on the coming changes and potential impacts and they are streaming it all on YouTube. Leaders in economics, ethics, AI, business etc having discussions and debates. I think you might enjoy it.
