summary
Claim that computing has jumped into the “second half of the chessboard,” enabling machines that can make almost anything and replace many jobs; cites 5 billion transistors and the ease of scaling to 10–100 billion, shows manufacturing returning to the U.S. with automation — example: one person builds a fridge in 4 hours and a Mac Pro built in Austin — describes robots that build themselves in a factory with three workers and Watson trained as doctor (160 hours of new medical research per week), then urges crowdsourced solutions for mass displacement.
