; Automation Landmarks
: '''The 'Lights-Out' Factory''' → Factories (like some in Japan and China) that run in total darkness because there are no humans inside who need light to see.
: '''The Luddite Rebellion (1811)''' → When British textile workers smashed steam looms to protect their jobs, leading to the first major debate on technology ethics.
: '''AlphaGo (2016)''' → The moment the world realized that "Creative" and "Strategic" work (like the game of Go) was no longer safe from automation.
: '''The 'Bulshit Jobs' Theory''' → David Graeber's argument that automation has already happened, but we created "Fake" administrative jobs just to keep people busy.
