Turns out the wrong kinds of jobs are easier to automate. But once we get those done away with, it's a lot of more labour in physical jobs and we can drive those costs down. Great, eh?

Tbf we'll need to automate everything we can because we aren't producing enough kids to keep this upside down pyramid going for much longer unfortunately. By we, I mean most of the developed world, and the developing world will get there in a few decades too.
