People always think this time is different. Machines cannot take all human jobs unless they are sentient. Even then they have no need to work. Humans will manage and operate teams of humanoid robots since machines won't be able to understand why we do what unless they can experience the world like we do. And for that they need to have and experience all our senses as well as emotions and physical needs. If an autonomous car can't measure g-forces it won't be able to drive comfortably for himan passengers. I know it can (I use Tesla's latest FSD v13 software and it's MIND BLOWINGLY good). But now imagine all the other senses and emotions. Humanoid robots will be a huge economic boon, but it won't replace all labor. Initially there will be huge job losses as these robots become more capable, but they will always need human guidance, input and management.
