The Third Industrial Revolution

Here's a thought-provoking article that makes me wonder about what the near future will hold. Will we see an idealistic world of increased freedom from menial toil and labor, or a dystopian society where displaced workers and their families struggle to survive? Will the gap between rich and poor become so great that social upheaval and struggle is unavoidable? Or will we be able to provide opportunities for all to survive and prosper? As a society and culture, I think we must challenge ourselves to seek and shape the best possible outcome now.
