Here's a related quote from my book “Technology vs Humanity”: “We will of course see some new jobs being created that did not previously exist, such as human-machine interface designers, cloud biologists, artificial intelligence (AI) supervisors, human genome analysts, and personal privacy managers. However, hundreds of millions of commodity-work roles and routine jobs, will be gone forever— particularly those that are mostly repetitive, and that do not require many human-only skills such as negotiation, creativity, or empathy. The question is not if but when.
We now need to realize how exponentially fast this change is likely to happen, and what it could mean for education, learning, training, government strategies, social benefit systems, and public policies around the globe.” From my book “Technology Vs. Humanity”. You can read more here
