well jobs like being a cashier are being replaced with self-checkout machines that can work 24/7 and a lot of the cashiers don't have many back-up skills do rely upon for example 🤔

but maybe the whole argument of this project is flawed, this is really good and beneficial thought process from your behalf, thank you for sharing it

here to learn 🤗

Yeah i think it would be a huge error to extrapolate an area or two where this is obvious ie a cashier at a shop to “the entire workforce”. And even in those cases where they need less cashiers does it mean they need less people stocking shelves or more? Do they need less or more people performing other tasks etc? All these things depend on sales, customer guest counts and many other things. To narrow the frame down to automation bad we need to steal from somewhere else seems suboptimal

🤔 you make a lot of wonderful points, making me understand things i didn't even think to consider

as this project needs to be done for a university course, then i'm considering pivoting, as i want to keep the topic of automation and the state, and the future of that is like

also thank you so so much, this helped me a ton 💜
