A personal essay on family history and technological change
Original: The last time my family was replaced by technology
A writer recounts how a past wave of technology once displaced members of his own family from their work, drawing a parallel to today's debates about automation and artificial intelligence taking over jobs. The piece uses a personal, family-history angle to argue that technological replacement of workers is not new, and that lessons from earlier disruptions may apply to the current moment.
Why now: Concerns about AI and automation replacing human workers have made historical parallels about technological displacement resonate widely.
