The problem is that the wealth generated by the robots is going to the owners, not to the workers that lose their jobs, as always. Otherwise it'd be great.

Are people getting wealthy from working as waiters?

Would you rather see them begging in the streets?

I'd rather see them doing something they enjoy for a fair wage while being treated like a human being. Universal Basic Income had already been mentioned in this thread, why is begging on the streets the only other option?
