What seems to be the issue here? If you can get a machine to do something that a human can do then you give that human the opportunity to place his focus, time and attention elsewhere.
Most people that work unskilled labor jobs today aren't qualified to work alternative skilled jobs.
A large class of unemployed (and unemployable) workers is a nightmare situation and is detrimental in any economy.
I guess any country has plenty of fixing to do anyway.
most importantly, stop producing unskilled workers. automation isn't going to go away.
Now, we're talking about improving the education system, which has its own fair share of problems.
There are solutions, but none of them are easy to implement.
Or maybe this (fact that some humans cannot write code, etc. for a job) is a consequence of the bell curve or the human condition itself?
Assuming the human was rational, what they were doing was already the thing that provided them the greatest utility of the options they had -- if putting their focus, time, and attention elsewhere was more beneficial to them, they already would have been doing it.
If you remove that option, unless there is some better new option created for that same human -- rather than merely displacing them from their best option -- then they experience a net utility loss.
