Please give me a real world example of an industry that will NOT BE AFFECTED by technology?
The problem with what you are saying is it’s assuming humans into the equation.
As technology becomes more advance, less and less people are needed.
Automation and A.I. will decimate the middle class and create a large welfare class.
There was a debate on this a while back and the CEO of Sun Microsystems wrote about it. This is the article that woke me up.
Please read this.

Fewer and fewer people.People are not a pile of sand or a bucket of water. Fewer people or less humanity, except, of course, in public school.
“As technology becomes more advance, less and less people are needed.”
Just before the turn of last century something like 80-90% of the people worked on farms.
With the advent of technology most of the labor of those people was transferred to machines. Today only something like 4% of the people work on farms.
So, what are those ~80% that no longer work on farms doing now?
See my post #17 for the real reason behind this concocted alarmism.
“Automation and A.I. will decimate the middle class and create a large welfare class.”
BS! Who will be buying these wonderful products and services that these robots are creating if nobody has jobs and thus can’t afford to buy them? This is really pathetic logic.
You also forget that humans have insatiable needs. As old needs are satisfied new needs arise.
What I predict as the next growth industry that will arise from increased automation is the “pamper industry” and I don’t mean diapers. I mean that people will look for services and products that will pamper them, and as machines proliferate the human touch will be more on demand. Look at all the nail places, salons, massages, cruises, travel, restaurants, amusement and entertainment that were non existing a few decades ago.
Don’t be bamboozled by scaremongering leftist propaganda. The reason for the big push for this is, as I said in post #17, GUARANTEED INCOME.
As technology becomes more advance, less and less people are needed.
Automation and A.I. will decimate the middle class and create a large welfare class.

THE FUTURE IS BRIGHT
Nope. Not less people but less work is needed. People will acquire their major wealth sooner.
The welfare class is still a creation of the State, which focuses wealth into fewer hands.
A robot will sweep the streets with 1/3 the effort. But everyday people can also own that robot, not just rich oligarchs who get their monopoly from the State. But your robot will allow you to retire in half the time.
CEOs are know nothings. The little people just get intimidated. I laugh at their science prognostications. CEOs are so incredibly stupid. They just have valuable ties to the State.
