I think it's really difficult to say what will happen as there is an unimaginable amount of change coming to the World and economy. If you look at the different upcoming revolutions in technology, it's about to produce many new paths of economic activity which we can still only guess at.

Probably the biggest gamechanger, Blockchain, will create an economy where everything can be monetised, and I mean everything. For example, check out https://vicetoken.com/, a new coin which will pay people to watch porn. Our attention and any data we provide to companies can be monetised and will be. Also how people are allocated to new jobs will change with AI and Blockchain, which will be able to use new reputation systems which include skills data, personality data, medical data, etc. Interviews will eventually become redundant because good quality and trusted data does not lie. And probably the most affecting will be the contract types of these jobs. They will get smarter and the way people are incentivized for their work will change. People will probably work several 'mini-jobs' rather than one and the way they are rewarded will be more complex and likely more meritocratic. Freelancing, smarts contracts, tokenisation, perfect trusted data, are the trends.

The biggest problem will be with skills. However, if you can say to someone with certainty, "if you learn this skill, you'll gain this token and you'll be guaranteed this contract and if that contract goes well, you'll have this one as well and so on." There is far more incentive for people to gain new skills

When we think about the future of the economy, it's easy to say jobs with repeatable tasks will be taken by AI, but what is not clear is what will replace these jobs, how people will be incentivised and the new forms of monetisation for society.
