Indeed. The standard view of automation is that farms will just have machinery and factories will just have robots. That's largely true.

What many do not see is that computers are already having a heavy impact with lawyers and with finance workers. The machines are better than the people for some of these knowledge-based jobs. This is not just a "blue-collar" problem. A lot of people with expensive degrees are becoming superfluous.
