  • New forms of automation are radically transforming society. Advanced robotics and artificial intelligence are increasing productivity and improving lives. However, what will happen to our jobs and what skills will we need to perform them? In the following talk, David will provide answers to these questions and explain why we should look at technological developments with hope, rather than fear. David Timis is a EU Civics Outreach Fellow at Google and the Co-Founder of European Heroes, an initiative aimed at encouraging civic engagement among young Europeans. He is also an active member of the Global Shapers Community, a network of inspiring young people working together to address global challenges, and a Country Representative for the Common Futures Conversations project launched by Chatham House to facilitate dialogue between young people in Africa and Europe. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

    1)Adaptability = Capacity To Embrace Change.
    2)Resilience = Ability To Persevere In Spite Of The Challenges That Come Your Way.
    3)Continuous Learning = Developing Yourself Constantly Both Professionally & Personally.

    He is right on point in that education is failing our youth, and they simply wont be smart (common sense smart) enough to qualify for the jobs that will be available to them and needed by society. I dont see education changing anytime soon (at least not in the USA), in any meaningful way. So yeah, best of luck to our youth, they are gonna need it

    AI will be able to do a heck of a lot more than 5% of our jobs. I follow AI research closely, and frankly I don't think there is a job or task that AI or machine automation won't be able to perform. And I think this is a wonderful thing, humans should be focusing on the betterment of humanity through things like research, philosophy, literature, and art, not grinding life away doing menial tasks.

    Google the most common jobs in the USA, and you will find 25 jobs that are being automated today. Only 5% of jobs are going to be fully automated? Tell that to the screen when you order food at a fast food restaurant. (And if you don’t think they are automating the cooking area do more research!) Or Amazon when you order from there instead of a cashier. 40% of the job losses are going to be permanent.

    Funny how pro-AI individuals keep on comparing AI with the Industrial Revolution. Anycase, we don't know for sure, but one of the biggest risks of AI is that it can lead to a whole class of people that would be essentially redundant. It would also possibly lead to a new super rich class, the data barons. No wonder individuals like Zucherberg is pro-AI. He would be one of those super rich class.

    Is this not the elite that have creative jobs saying everything's going to be fine? As this is introduced people need to be supported as they lose their jobs and need to be retrained- many people cant be retrained because they are old or not intelligent or educated enough to understand the new technologies and how they can work alongside them. What are these new skills- computer programming, robot mechanic, data analyst? People that cant do these jobs will just be left with increasingly low paid, menial jobs as is already happening. There are so many bs jobs in our economy and if employers have an easy choice to automate they will. The bosses will become rich and the workers poor- exacerbating inequality. Zuckerberg et al see the world as a system but forget the individual. If you have been trained by the education system to think and act like a robot then you will be replaced. We are constantly expected to think as a consumer, well we also need meaningful jobs. Government and tech companies spend their lives making robots etc and forget that most people are still living boring lives, stressed and poor.

      Actually, contrary to the initial expectations, looks like the 'creativity' of humans doing art is much easier to automate, than scientific thinking. I've seen already many pieces of AI art, which in my opinion are far better than anything a human can do. But when we succeed to make an AI scientist, then there will be nothing left that humans can do better. My hopes are in Neuralink and the brain-machine interfaces...

    Pretty worthless talk. Life-long-learning? That is not new in any way. I think the guy should read a bit on the subject. Maybe read Nick Bostrom’s Superintelligence. Or Rise of the Robots by Martin Ford. I would think we are looking more at a polarized job market, with many needing to take low paid jobs and fewer having ineresting well paid jobs in the mid term, until the superintelligence makes those obsolete as well. So what is his practical advice to young people? What type of studied should they do? Worthless talk
