That is why we are to work hard in other to develop our skills in many sectors of human endeavour so that we would not find it difficult to get a job in future when things because very difficult.

I have also seen many films about the dominance of Artificial Intelligence (AI). That would happen if we did not actually control the development of AI and wanted to replace all employee with robots.
It is worrying that if the speed of development of the robot industry is high compared to the knowledge improvement of workers, those who can not afford to do the high-tech work, will go to where, while robots are replacing them from manual labor.  Undecided
I really don't think that we have to worry about AI taking over humans, in terms of robots becoming violent and hurting people. I think that's only possible is humans program them to do that in the first place.

I'm also really curious what people think about the jobs being taken over. What will society do to deal with this? Will people just work less? Will there be new jobs that will be able to replace the old ones? I think these are questions that are discussed far too seldom. These problems are coming at us much more quickly than we may imagine.

There are already machines in Walmarts buying phones from you and in lot's of fastfoods and other restaurants machines get your order.
Yeah, it will take some time, but I guess eventually they will only have machines taking your order in fast food places. Maybe they'll have one person for multiple machines to make sure nobody has problems. Amazon has made stores now that literally have no cashiers. You just sign up in the app first. You scan your phone when you go in and there are sensors and cameras that detect what you take with you. You just walk out and Amazon automatically bills you for what you took. This is the future. Now they just need to automatically stock the shelves, I guess. Haha.

I think we're on a brink of "losing" a lot more jobs than we ever did in the past. If you just consider drivers. There are so many jobs that require drivers now. You have couriers, taxi drivers, truck drivers, delivery drivers, ambulance drivers... There are millions of drivers just in the US. I believe that self-driving cars will eventually replace all those jobs. Self-flying planes may even eventually completely replace pilots (I know that commercial pilots already using automated systems most of the time). What other jobs can you see may soon start being replaced by technology? What will we be able to do to make up for these lost jobs?

I'm looking forward to your thoughts.
