Automation has never and will never take away ones ability to create for themselves. Remember all automated machines are created By humans.The machines don't feel, they don't care if the air conditioner is running or that the room is well lit. Automation is merely a means to an end. All automated robots to date require maintenance. Remember technology is never going to stop. Any tool can be used for good or bad. A Pencil can be used to draw plans for a great library or it can be used to stab someone.
Take what happened in Silicon Valley for example. Computer companies sprang up, but everyone didn't just work for those companies. People started all kinds of related companies that supported the computer industry. Then companies sprang up that supported those companies. The economy exploded. People with inventions could meet with venture capitalists, maybe even in a parking lot. If they had a promising invention or service the venture capitalist might fund the business. It was all symbiotic. Tons of new companies evolved from this process.
