I remember when I had an elevator operator to push the button for me too. Somehow life moves on! People will adapt and change. Computers should do any job they can.

And lets face it, if they all run Microsoft software, the world will crash every ten minutes, babies will be born with a blue screen say "REBOOT".
If cars had been as poorly designed as computers then we would still be using steam today.
And I say that as a seasoned Computer Engineer

Not money is the basic need! Its what you get for the money! Money is some kind of "stored work" or "stored food" and money looses its value with time.
You don´t need work, you don´t need money - you need the thing´s you get for the money.
computer and machines will not replace the "brain"-based work in near future because its still not really known how the brain works. Neuronal networks are a kind of replacement but we are really far away from reconstructing the human brain. Many things which seem to bee intelligent are based on simple algorithms. A kind the so called "soul" is missing and maybe we never can find out how our brain works because we use it to find out?.

People should be finding jobs in the computer field software and fixing them
It is sad that people dont even see that all this electronic technology is making us so distant from each other
I go to the gym cant ask anyone anything they all have their ear plugs in and dont want to or seem to want to be bothered
in the street cant ask for directions people seem bothered because you made them take their ear piece out to ask them something
you cant get a live person to help you in most business transitions when on the phone it is frustrating frustrated
