Workers are always being displaced by technology. It's been happening since the industrial revolution, and it's going to keep happening until the end of time. That's not the problem.

The actual problem is this: As human civilization continues to advance, technology will blaze along at exponentially faster speeds. The kind of tech advances we're going to see in the next twenty years will blow the advances of the last twenty out of the water. The velocity of change, as it were, is increasing. And since people are struggling to handle the current pace of change, that fact is worrying.
