"What happens when vast swaths of educated and uneducated people alike lose their jobs to AI?"

I'm looking forward to it.

I can program in FORTRAN, use a slide rule, drive a stick shift and navigate with a sextant. But right now I couldn't get a job bagging groceries at Publix.

I'm pretty sure there will always be opportunities for clever people with good education and deep experience, just not as many of them. And of course, management will get very good at devising business plans that require fewer of those over-educated and extravagantly paid elites--until AI takes over THEIR jobs.

I can still write some pretty good English prose, but fewer and fewer people these days need to know how to read. Once voice recognition and machine-generated speech becomes common in user interfaces, literacy will begin to rapidly decline. After all, they have cash registers now that can be operated by people who don't know how to make change.

Still, it should be interesting. All those pissed off people will have guns, and they've been stockpiling ammo for years.
