We already have a service economy running on a global system of debt where most employed people already don't produce anything of tangible value. Automation may be the least of our worries.
Prey species of the tiger include Manchurian wapiti, Siberian musk deer, long-tailed goral, moose, Siberian roe deer, Manchurian sika deer, wild boar, even sometimes small size Asian black bear and Ussuri brown bear.
I always wanted to see that fight in nature. I assume the Tiger would try to stalk the bear attack from behind and bite his neck. In this scenario the Tiger has the upper hand. If the bear notices the Tiger and uses his claws against him I think he has the advantage.
the bear can kill the tiger with his claws so his head can stay at a save distance and the tiger has to use his teeth for the kill so he has to expose his head
Tigers can tackle bears larger than themselves, using an ambushing tactic and jumping onto the bear from an overhead position, grabbing it by the chin with one fore paw and by the throat with the other, and then killing it with a bite in the spinal column.
