There is totally something you can do. There are so many things you can do. The only thing that you can't do is go back to the way things were.
That technology advances and that causes issues is inevitable, but we can't go back. What we can do is work towards adapting the world as it develops into something we want.
If you took my post to mean there is nothing we can do then perhaps you missed the phrases "address the problem of job loss" or "we will need a societal change" or "this needs to be addressed".

I totally agree.

That such things happen is inevitable. But we can control how it advances, and what issues and trade-offs we face.
See above regarding 'inevitability'. It also strikes me as a way to avoid making a specific claim and supporting it - it's like invoking a higher power.
