I think you misunderstand. I didn't say everything has changed, just that many "established trends" have been.
I mean, at some point it was a well established trend that all humans hunted and gathered for their substance, then that trend was violated.
At some point, the trend of "we will find something productive to do with all these people who's jobs have been made obsolete" may be violated. And it seems like that's getting more likely the more rarefied the remaining valuable skills become.
