Resources from Mother Jones

Automation helped bring on the age of Trump. What will AI bring? Sometime in the next 40 years, robots are going to take your job.

I don’t care what your job is. If you dig ditches, a robot will dig them better. If you’re a magazine writer, a robot will write your articles better.

It will just be a better doctor than you.
