RE: Automation and AI They Took Our Jobs
For a data-driven take on this issue, I highly recommend Moshe Vardi's talk: Humans, Machines, and Work: The Future is Now. This is the version that I attended at RIce (where he is prof) in 2017:

Thanks for sharing, I'll have a look at it soon.
I did watch a few videos on self driving cars. They were interviewing the people programming them who said in 10 to 20 years tops people will only be allowed to drive on tracks because they won't be able to afford insurance. Then they interviewed taxi drivers and truck drivers who said it was impossible. These people had never been in the automated cars. Finally, there were some truckers in selfdriving cars who were able to just basically sit there and do office work and take over the odd time when it beeped or on a complicated street (like with tons of driveways, bikes, crosswalks etc.).
