      No it doesn’t, slavery wastes an insane amount of potential. And this is far more about automation.

      Actually it doesn‘t because exploitation slows down innovation which is why China keeps buying and spying on foreign companies. I would also take everything from futurism.com with a teaspoon of salt. They don‘t have the best track record. CEOs are claiming they saw the future in completely dark factories. That‘s not the best source. They‘re known to be compulsive liars and often detached from reality. Who knows what they saw or if they really saw anything.
