Wealth Simple: Investing on Autpilot - thoughts?

A friend of mine recently shared with me a trading platform which invests on your behalf, on autopilot through the use of algorithms and AI - Scary to think that we've gotten here and this is just the beginning...

As more of these trading platforms begin to surface and become popular, when will trading and other asset management jobs be completely eliminated?

Will this worsen the income inequality gap worldwide/rich get richer and the poor get poorer?
