With the arrival of the robot era, how should we deal with ourselves?

It is undeniable that the application of robotics in different fields in recent years has indeed brought us a lot of convenience.

For example, under the epidemic situation, hotel food delivery robots and delivery drones have appeared in our lives more and more frequently because they can withstand higher work intensity without the risk of cross-infection.

Another field of robots-unmanned driving, related reports are also endless. Whenever Tesla, Google, or China's Baidu and BYD launch the latest unmanned vehicle models, they can cause a sensation.

It can be said that the wide application of robot technology has brought obvious benefits. Humans no longer have to worry about simple, boring and repetitive work, which greatly saves time and energy.

On the other hand, the threat that robots will pose to human beings cannot be ignored. In the future, a large number of jobs will be replaced by robots, and hundreds of millions of people will only be unemployed.

It can be said with certainty that robot technology will lead to the disappearance of a large number of jobs, and it is not human beings who are worried. In the documentary Robot Revolution, scientists used data to reveal a very cruel reality:

The technological changes that began in the 20th century led to the disappearance of 85% jobs in manufacturing industry. By 2030, nearly 800 million jobs around the world will be replaced by robots.

Including repetitive and simple jobs, such as drivers, factory assembly line workers, security guards, some low-tech loan officers, clerks, secretaries, etc. Even teachers, doctors and lawyers who have always been known as "iron rice bowls" are facing the risk of being replaced by automated robots.

According to the development speed of robot revolution, our children, as the next generation, may face more severe challenges.
