In Japan, the robot isn't coming for your job; it's filling the one nobody wants

Robots took my job of checks notes playing settlers of Catan with you.

Thank you very much, Mr. Roboto, for doing the job nobody wants to.

Domō arigatō, Mr. Roboto.

I'll never forget watching an interview in the Before Times where a live interviewer asked a Japanese roboticist why Japan is so interested in robotics and that dude deadass looked right in the camera and said "Because we don't want immigrants"
