Jobs are not obsolete - they will be different

Are jobs obsolete? - CNN.com: "New technologies are wreaking havoc on employment figures -- from EZpasses ousting toll collectors to Google-controlled self-driving automobiles rendering taxicab drivers obsolete. Every new computer program is basically doing some task that a person used to do. But the computer usually does it faster, more accurately, for less money, and without any health insurance costs."

My notion of a future job is a zillion kiosks in a zillion cyber-communities (car free gatherings of 10K persons more or less) with each kiosk operating 24/7 requiring four full time managers and dealing with one explicit thing using large screens and being a gathering place for people interested in whatever that thing is whether learning to read or finding one's blood pressure or studying history or getting a job.
