A hypothetical "fourth industrial revolution" would supposedly make new good jobs in the UK.

If these predictions prove accurate, the UK might gain 175,000 good jobs — but that is minuscule compared with the millions stuck in McJobs, and the millions that might lose their jobs. The state will have to give them funds so they can have a decent life.

It's the same thing in the US. We should decide which technologies to allow to reshape society — not let companies compete to make them addictive.
