Another feedback loop in action: SV & SF unaffordability pushes out service workers and causes the area to become a prime location for the deployment of service work automation technology, which may result in better chances for the startups in this field starting out here. It is still unclear how economical this sort of automation will be in other parts of the world though. If it does turn out big, Silicon Valley will have a first shot at it. |

It may be that certain jobs get automated. But look at what Tesla is going through; they're using more people, not less, and basically admitted they screwed up trying to automate so much assembly work from day 1.
On the other hand, the electorate here (SF) seems to want to push minimum wages to $20/hr, so maybe you'll end up right.
