The question of what jobs will be left after AI takes the industrial jobs is no longer on the table

I'm reading a book from 2017 about the future of work. There are constant references to "a future where 50% or more of jobs are automated". There are now *actual* automated jobs, the question of "what will people do when a large portion of jobs are automated" seems to be totally on the table. These days it seems like the question is more about "what jobs will be left for the masses now that 70/80/90% of jobs are automated". We've gone from "what if 50% of jobs are automated", to "what if only 10% of people can work". That's obviously a major change. It's time to stop talking about 20%, and start talking about 80% to 90%. IDK.
