#16"If a role can be outsourced, it can be automated." I really don't see the logic in this statement.
There isn't one. It's just not true. There is lots of creative work that is routinely outsourced and cannot be automated yet. A CEO of a startup constantly outsources tasks to people, whenever they cannot be automated easily.

To outsource something you have to be able to unambiguously specify requirements (otherwise costs blow up as you go back and forth). Once you’ve made it truly unambiguous, the next logical step is automation.

Not all automation is economically efficient - i.e. it's cheaper to hire outsourced janitors than building state of the art cleaning robots to automate their jobs.

#20At the very least, you could do a hybrid model: An AI that makes 80% of the decisions and routes 20% to a human to help guide the decision making process.
