I started to notice a intense automation and Artificial Intelligence Investments from companies and that made me wonder, what would happen or what should be done with the people who can't be trained for a new job and can't use his current skills to to get a job.

How would he live or what would he do in life? More importantly, what should be done with him to make him useful or at least neutral rather than being a negative on the society?

create government bureau that figures out how many people a company would need to employ without automation
tax that company the equivalent of those people's salaries
fund UBI

Fuck capitalism.
