Come join the discussion regarding humans being replaced by robots at an increasing pace. Our capitalist economic pursuits have served us well, but how will they cope when the lion's share of humans are simply no longer useful?

A subreddit for discussing the fact that human labour is quickly being made redundant. Is it really feasible to expect career coal-miners to learn to code so we can continue with business as usual, or do we need to think bigger? What does that look like to you?

Discussion regarding how one can best prepare for this future, hypothesizing about possible outcomes, and more 'fringe' thinking is most welcome here. For a more technical and reasoned discussion, visit /r/automate and/or check out its sidebar!

Was created as a potential alternative to /r/Automate for those who are looking for a more emotional/political take on the subject of technological unemployment. It is a contentious topic with many people holding firmly rooted opinions concerning the cause and potential solutions to the woe brought about by freeing humans from menial labour.

This subreddit is intended for content aimed at spreading awareness about the impending reality that machines are rapidly displacing workers, and that the gains are increasingly being consolidated by fewer and fewer successful capitalists. Discussion regarding how one can best prepare for this future, hypothesizing about possible outcomes, and more 'fringe' thinking is most welcome here.
