Technology in one way is destroying jobs but in another way create many jobs for people.look at the number of people benefiting from steem technology.As you just said,that in future that many centralize operation will going to be decentralize.this is a great insight that we should hold on to it because truly it will going to happen.thanks for sharing this priceless insight.

What is the definition of a "job" or, more importantly, "work"?
Technology is destroying the go to an office or plant and put in X number of hours for X number of dollars.
The time for money model is being obliterated. Now what we are seeing in formation is the getting reward for creating and using....
So is someone on Steemit earning STEEM working? Is that their job if it is their primary source of income? Is it work for them earning a fair bit of income while just play for someone else who is doing it for fun and earning a bit of STEEM? Where is the breakdown?

Hunter gatherer society had no distinguishment between work and play. They would not understand a job. Even calling them hunter gatherers is awkward as they wouldnt define themselves that way.
Agricultrural societies functioned differently. Its awkward when people claim 90% of people worked in farming, as it was a completely different set up. They also wouldn't understand the concept of a job, or rather that more than a small handful could have them.
