    Labor "shortage"? In a free market, wouldn't the price of labor, i.e. wages, rise to meet demand?

      It’s not going to be instant. Just like we have housing shortages or unemployment.

    I don’t see a whole lot (if any) of optimism in the article. Of course the oligarchs would put out a grand vision of AI. Too many similarities to Rapture (Bioshock).
