<i>I sincerely hope the strategy isn&#x27;t &quot;find the cheapest human labor possible&quot;</i><p>As evil as it seems, that&#x27;s probably a sane strategy - as actual automation eats the job market, the number of unemployed, or those seeking multiple&#x2F;alternate employment, will rise. These will more and more comprise displaced white collar workers. This will make the employment market a buyers market (moreso than it is already) and will result in decreased labour costs.<p>So - call me cynical, but if that&#x27;s their plan, it&#x27;s robust - if potentially evil - at least it&#x27;ll be providing employment.
