Hi Steemit,
I'm an author and researcher. I warned about the dangers of automation way back in the day, when it wasn't really a popular idea. People called me crazy, but then researchers from Oxford and MIT published papers showing the same exact results.
Then they started listening. I've been lecturing at universities and conferences all around the world for the past 4 years.
This video I created is a quick survival guide to avoid becoming obsolete, and whether you should think about a career change. Perhaps being a Steemit creator will soon be a viable career choice for many people? Who knows.

Researchers took a shot at estimating how technology will affect the job market in 20 years. Find your job to see what the data say about your future using the interactive tool I mention in the video "Will Your Job Be Done By A Machine?" http://bit.ly/npr-job-machine

The #SteemTubeExperiment
This is the third post of the series "The SteemTubeExperiment: bringing YouTube superstar creators to Steem".
I'm a best-selling author, internet creator and I manage a community of hundreds of YouTube superstars.
- I will post a selectio of my YouTube videos on Steem (#SteemTubeExperiment), recording the results and feedback
- I will document the process and challenges I find as a creator on Steem
- If my experience on Steem is positive, I will tell other superstar YouTubers about it

Where to find me:
automation take some jobs, but it generates more jobs too. in the end, i think it wont be a problem( at least not for a good time, AI might brings us some problem in the long run)
have a look on my post too, say what you think about it

Automation usually generate jobs only if the production quantity even higher could be consumed.
Youtubers? - Bring them on - the future is on the blockchain - It's time you get hooked up with Don & Alex ;-): http://blockchain-revolution.com/
This is really interesting! Thankfully I didn't see my role anywhere on the list :D
Glad you're a part of Steem Federico!
Automation is a real concern. My mom was pushed out of her job as a factory worker in 1995 or so. She was replaced by a machine THEN. In 1995, when Windows 95 was considered innovative.
Every year it gets worse. Now, we have to consider the new self-driving big rigs. What kind of impact will they have on the economy? Less accidents, less deaths, less lawsuits, less breaks, lower costs, and no workplace injuries. Will this translate to cheaper food at the grocery store? If it does, then automation is a bit less scary, but we know it won't. It never does.
It's another way for the company to line their pockets.
How many truck drivers are about to lose their jobs? I bet you know the company I'm referring to, being someone that's interested in automation, but in case you haven't heard of them. Their name is Otto Motors.

Daimler and Freightliner have versions too, but Otto is a gamechanger.
Universal Basic Income is best solution vs automation. Steem can be as some sort of UBI too.
I don't need to know where to retrain i want to know where to invest? stuff still being a worker on minimum wage. Because the more other industries colapse more more competitive others get and the worse conditions get in those jobs because multinationals are ruthless. So how about starting and running an investment pool for people like me to help us own the future for our children.
