Folks often assign the output of automated systems to the creator. This seems a fallacy. The output of an engineer creating an automated system is, the automated system. The output of the automated systems is the product of … the automated system. Who owns that? In a capitalist system, whomever paid for it.
This is quickly becoming an issue. As industrial output is rapidly becoming exclusively the product of automated systems, the 'worker' becomes irrelevant. The limit is, none of us do appreciable work for standard goods. And since we're not working, we're not getting paid, and we can't afford the goods.

We're gonna need a new system.
