Analogous viewpoint in the Eighteenth Century: "90% of the human race consists of agricultural laborers, mostly unfree (slaves or serfs). Steam-powered machinery will put almost all of those people out of work, turning the vast majority of humans into food-consuming sloths".
Agriculture's share of the labor force went from something like 70% in the early 20th century to something like 5% now. You have a higher purpose than doing a robot's job badly -- or a farmer's. Find it.
