Hey guys, my name is Selim Chehimi and today we are going to discuss if AI and Automation will cause mass unemployment.
Let’s get straight to the point:
yes, anything that we humans do to make money will one day be done by AI. Jobs are being decimated and they are not
going back.
Machines are demonstrating skills that they never ever had before.
This time, most jobs are at risk to be replaced by Artificial Intelligence.
Let’s look at some examples:
Drivers are the most likely to be affected! Vehicles like taxis and buses will be automated,
possibly by the early 2020s.
In 2020, AI will probably drive your car and we’ll see a bunch of them on the road.
The problem is that so many people are driving a truck or a taxi for a living
so many of them are going to be affected by this Technology.
Amazon Prime Air is a drone delivery system which anticipates package deliveries under five pounds in 30 minutes or less.
This Technology will impact delivery workers in the future.
AI bots are already writing articles related to business and sports for clients like Forbes. Also,
many experts are predicting that 90% of journalism will be automated by 2030.
“Social robots” are being used to help teach children about the appropriate social behavior.
Milo is a robot that teaches kids about social interactions and it has proven to be more efficient than humans!
Hi, my name is Milo, and I am the next generation of therapy for children with autism
Artists will also have to compete with robots. Here is a mind-blowing video where RobotArt is drawing Albert Einstein.
Artificial Intelligence will probably lead to the death of capitalism.
We’re on the verge of a new economy which will be incredibly productive but will not need a lot of human workers.
Managing this transition will be the hardest because we’ll have to reconsider the idea
of working for a living. If we don’t work anymore, how can we earn an income?
At this point,
I must present you the idea of the universal basic income. It was first created by Thomas Payne and
defended by great minds like Martin Luther King. It implies free money for everyone and it’s enough to pay your basic need
food, refuge and education! Moreover,
everyone would get it,
you can consider it as a right, not a favor.
Our biggest challenge will be to find the meaning of life
when work will no longer be necessary.
Some believe that we’ll be free from work, others believe that work is essential to human being. What about you?
