> One famous example, there are now more bank tellers than before the invention of the ATM.

Bank tellers do way more varied work than ATMs do. You cannot open an account at a bank from an ATM. This is a stupid example because ATMs were not and never did try to automate the entirety of a bank teller's job, only a couple of the services they do

> In fact you can go to any poor country with no automation and you'll find entire classes of un- and underemployed people. This is a condition of premodern, not technological societies

You can find this in Rural America, forget "poor countries with no automation"
