RE: Steemit Is The Future Of Work

in #steem7 years ago

But do you think is sustainable to have world where the majority of the population is subsided or living off things like steemit as you said?

I get we are living an era of big changes, but I am not sure how would the affect our daily lives.

I mean, history has taught us that technology always improve lives and creates even more jobs than the ones destroyed.

Of course it is sustainable. My next article is going to explain what few people realize about the power of the Internet and where it is going.

As for the daily lives, that is a question. I am sure it will depend upon the individual. Some will take it well, others not so well. Change is really difficult for many people.

That is true and what people hang their hat on. One thing about history it is true...until it is not.

Never has the housing market in the US went down more than 10%. That was the mantra in 2006....by 2009, that was no longer true.

Never before in history have we see the development of neural networking. Nor have we seen entire industries upended in only a few years. What took decades before now can happen in 3 years. Companies like Google and Facebook create revenues using a fraction of the employees that it took for a traditional company to achieve the same results.

Speed and advanced skillset required are the two main reasons why I believe this time is different.
