As automated machines continue to provide services formerly provided by a person, we as people are looking for creative ways to remain relevant. Lee states that we can figure out these ways by “asking people what problems they’re inspired to solve and what talents they want to bring to work.” This opens a dialogue for people to discuss what they do to make themselves happy, and potentially a way to monetize it.
