We are indeed in the beginnings of a post labor age.
I think we have been moving towards more knowledge and creativity based economy slowly, slowly and then quick bursts of change, followed by slowly, slowly, then quick bursts.
I still think one preserves your job, by using technology to make one more valuable, not by sitting around and waiting for technology to make you replaceable.
Lastly, I think inflation devalues the value of labor, because fiat is the currency representative of my expended labor. And inflation devalues my fiat, so it devalues my labor. Now technology does so also. So devaluation of fiat will be accelerated by technology? Scary thought.
