what is even more scary is software...AI will replace humans much more than robots ever could...right now software is trading on wall street and not humans...

there is no coming back from this one...
cost of robots is going down, and wages are going up over time, so eventually it will drop below cost of labor, even in poor countries...

so what Struggle4Bucks pointed out makes sense, if the predictions are true, countries whose economies are based on manufacturing will be effected first and to greater extent than "service" economies...
