RE: Automation-Revolution And The Future Of Our Jobs

in #technology7 years ago

"AI will steal our jobs"

steal... I don't think "steal" is the appropriate word here. It's like saying an expresso machine stole a brewer's job. Everything that we can do can also be done by a machine, except perhaps employ imagination, and much faster. At every step in these industrial revolutions, jobs haven't dissapeared. They have transformed from, doing X to Use Y to do X.

Perhaps you'll be served by a robotic clerk at Starbucks in the future, but certainly there will be a robotic clerk programmer.

Jobs have not dissapeared. They have mutated. The fear of being obsolete (skillwise) is an entirely different story.

Sort:  

You just rephrased what I have said, haven't you?

PS: I used steal because this was the word used in the post.
