Hello ,
What do you think of AUTOMATION and how does this impact your current job?
It seems they are pushing everywhere to eliminate people from work.
Driver less cars, driver less trucks, robot bartenders, robot airplanes military and civilian (drones that can take off aircraft carriers, autopilots etc), image recognition that can replace radiologists , house cleaning robots etc.
In the manufacturing field almost everything now is done by industrial robots.
I work in the telecom field meaning networks, network design and troubleshooting , managing data centers, telecom networks, routers, switches, firewalls, load-balancers, access points etc the Internet.
Even here the new technology called SDN (software defined networking ) is pushing for automation where Apps talk directly with a SDN Controller which in turn programs the network to accommodate traffic specifically for the APPS so less network engineers needed and this is a high technical job lots of information to study and understand etc, not easy.
The IBM Watson platform which is all about Machine Learning can replaces radiologist. By giving it enough validated X-Rays it can recognize tumors, fractures etc by itself.
In the financial industry Artificial Intelligence is replacing analysts and investors etc.
The only ones who seem that will have jobs in this world are some computer programmers.
I've seen a show about a completely automated Hotel in Japan. There were no people , none, zero, zilch, working there. It was really Spooky, at least for me.
There are not enough jobs for people and it seems there will be fewer still. They have even robot pets. Instead of real dog some little robot that plays some bark sounds and wags it's artificial tail when you pet it.
What do you think about this? Are you worried ?
