It might come off kind of callous, but I don’t think there’s any benefit to society in having people employed doing jobs that are so easily automatable(or otherwise improved by technological means), it’s just a waste of resources. But firing non-essential employees due to automation plus capitalism just doesn't work. Workers pay income tax but robots don't, so I'm a fan of heavily taxing automation in order to fund public service jobs. If 100,000 warehouse workers could all become social workers, or care for the elderly, or even do manual labor but for public infrastructure, that could be pretty rad for society.
