47% of today’s jobs could be automated in the next two decades
Until now the jobs most vulnerable to machines were those that involved routine, repetitive tasks. But thanks to the exponential rise in processing power and the ubiquity of digitised information (“big data”), computers are increasingly able to perform complicated tasks more cheaply and effectively than people. Clever industrial robots can quickly “learn” a set of human actions. Services may be even more vulnerable. Computers can already detect intruders in a closed-circuit camera picture more reliably than a human can. By comparing reams of financial or biometric data, they can often diagnose fraud or illness more accurately than any number of accountants or doctors. One recent study by academics at Oxford University suggests that 47% of today’s jobs could be automated in the next two decades.
The Economist, The effect of today’s technology on tomorrow’s jobs will be immense—and no country is ready for it!
Well do you think the things humans do better than machines/Robots are going to increase or the Robots are going to improve even faster than Humans?
Of course.....
What is the smart thing to do?
1.Invest your savings in the Robot factory (Google, Facebook, Amazon, and some other Emerging Companies)
2.Learn how to write code
3.Invest strongly in all things athletics that you need coordination, etc... Machines/Robots can think much better than a Human but coordination & movement humans always win hands down.
