The only way there will be no jobs is if every conceivable human need is met by robots. In which case there will also be no need to work.

I understand that. The fear I'm describing isn't no jobs, but less jobs than there are people.

There's multiple ways to address this, but it's difficult for me to imagine a future with our current economic system (in the US) that allows that to happen (like UBI).
