Cost of doing the job...
Every task has actual value, based on skill set, need and supply of workers.
Taking orders at fast food or sweeping the parking lot are not $15.0 0 hr jobs.
Minimum wage regulations that suggest a living wage force these lie paying tasks to be paid far more than value.
Nobody lives on minimum wage, it was for entry level work.
Need more, learn more and get better skills.
To counter a machine is developed that removes the labor that is over paid and result is usually better outcome.

"Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day.
Teach a man to fish and you feed him for life."
The problem in "teaching him to fish" is that he needs taught daily how to fish, keeps getting distracted with his smart phone and lets the fish run off with the bait, forgets to bring the pole and hooks to go fishing, if he shows up in the first place, however he still expects the fish prepared how he likes it on his dinner plate at meal time.
So what can we tell about you?
Let's say you have a new automation project in mind. Your idea is to eliminate the assembly of a widget. You have a hard time finding good employees, so you have no intention of eliminating the widget-maker, who has consistently shown up on time every day for 10 years to make his widget, and he has a strong work ethic. Your intention is to move the widget maker to a different role. But this means he will have to train to make some other kind of widget, and, having little to no post-high-school education, he is not confident that he will be up to the task. Though he is aware of your intention to keep him employed, he is not confident that change will be good, and he thinks maybe you'll change your mind and fire him in a year or two if he can't learn the new task. So he continues making his widget diligently, but he has no intention of helping anyone figure out how to improve the widget-making process. His knowledge of this widget would be invaluable, and it would be good to have him helping the automation process, not bristling at it.
How do you convince the widget-maker to help the automation designers work him out of a job?

Give a man a match, he'll be warm for a day.
Set a man on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life!
I like BigB's post 5 "He told me that we have competitors and if they automate and we don't, they will be eating our lunches."....... Is there any way to throttle the development of AI? And if there were, how would that affect the technological race against countries like China?

For sure if you automated something and your best friend's wife is now out of a very well paying job you question your role.
There is no standing still or old days. If not moving forward someone else will.
Those settled in a job or way often do not like this idea. It upsets the apple cart, makes for stress.
Others want to run and try any wild thing seen and need to be herded into reality.

The bigger picture is that ai/automation/etc. are just links in the chains that will permanently enslave humanity. All the tech is connected, and ultimately it concentrates control into the hands of very few while leaving humanity as little more than cogs in the societal machine.
Self driving vehicles is the that scares me most about its impact on society. With industrial automation at least it lets us better compete with foreign labor and also provides in many cases opportunities for motivated employees to climb the ladder into more advanced skilled work. With self driving vehicles how many people are out there today who are earning a great middle class income driving a vehicle of some sort and what will they all do once that job is automated? I have to think the number of professional drivers numbers in the millions in this country. I suspect maybe even more people earn a living driving be it from UBER, to big rigs to locomotives than people number of people who are employed in manufacturing.Industrial automation is mature. That ship has sailed.
Automation is now about to spread to many other sectors: self driving vehicles, delivery drones, etc.
Many desk jobs will be eliminated with the proliferation of AI/ML: data entry, paralegal, etc. Additional full time jobs will be replaced with contracted work in the gig economy, made easy and practical by technology.
Ethical considerations are tricky. Will displaced blue collar workers give a crap when white collar jobs are eliminated? Is there any way to throttle the development of AI? And if there were, how would that affect the technological race against countries like China?
Sounds like what they call high-functioning autistic. Mental health problems are unfortunate Too bad you couldn't convince him triangles have three sides, which makes them 3d, he'd been qualified for yearsThe next morning I asked him to prove out the setup, he did, then I saw him walking around in small circles in front of the machine talking to himself, I went over to see what was wrong, he was pissed I had tricked him into setting up what he called a 3D part when he wasn't qualified to do
