Ex-Google China President Kai-Fu Lee: A.I. Will Obliterate Half Of All Jobs | CNBC
Am I picking up a pretty arrogant attitude from one of the interviews toward the interviewee? You invited an expert to your panel to discuss issues and you just appeared to be a cocky know-if-all.
A shame. Mr. Lee is trying to drop some real knowledge on these people and that anchor is being a condescending d-bag. He tried to warn you...
Can somebody mute that old man??
No, we need to see people like this so we can recognize what stupid looks like.
robaart 😂 savage
Mr Lee’s answers and choice of words indicate that he has at least double the IQ of the older gentleman.
Dr. Lee
eskil1u it wudn't be much hard to have double the iq of a donkey.
the white old guy was ignorance is laughable
And this goes straight to the point of what Andrew Yang is pushing for the 2020 Presidential Campaign.
Yang’s already getting blackballed by the media, and even by hardcore Bernie supporters. We’re living in the world of Idiocracy. I’m beginning to believe Yang is too smart for most Americans to actually vote for him.
@@punkgrl325 Have faith!
@@punkgrl325 yang gang is working overtime
Yeah, $1000 per month will cover everything.
@@frankgarrett9500 its not meant to cover everything. Its meant to provide a foundation to build upon. At a minimum, American citizens will never starve. its not meant to buy you a house or car.
Let the man talk
We need Andrew Yang more than ever.
I wake up a little less alive each day since he has suspended his campaign. I'm citing this video in an essay on automation leading to rampant social ills, though, so his message carries on. Yang 2024!
Let Doctor Lee talk more.
Presidential candidate #AndrewYang is the only candidate that understands the implications of and planning for the new industrial revolution Industry 4.0. No other candidates are adept enough to even talk about on their platform. Yang2020.com
Wow, the last sentence really is everyone's dream !
I have been thinking this too. Ironically, the low status blue-collar jobs will be much harder to replace than the high status white-collar ones. The economist Jeremy Rivkin has even suggested we could buy ourselves several decades to adjust to the 'unemployment transition' by retrofitting our entire infrastructure for green energy, as that is labour-intensive and "robots aren't going to do it", which is true for the foreseeable future.
valar i actually disagree with the whole idea that white collar will be easier to replace than blue collar.
The idea is based on the fact that it has proven much easier for AI to manipulate masses of information than for it to perform motor skill tasks, and that it is likely to remain so for some time - and even when it can, employing humans for manual labour will still be cheaper for some time after that. Not forever, of course, but for decades.
valar i understand the logic behind the arguement but at the same time i still disagree. Its on the fact that white collar jobs (trading, analytics ertc) always require an input of data to be correct with an analysis (or at least have their arugement supported with evidence) if a piece of informations is missing then the analysis of an economy for instance could be incorrect. What o am saying is that in terms of analysis the a i would be essentially as smart as the programmer who programmed it. Where as a i that is deaigned to work a blue collar job would essentiall be doing the same thing over and over again. Granted the learning curve is higher but once ots mastered its pretty much done.
Well, we'll certainly find out!
I agree, basic manufacturing is the only blue collar job automation can even touch right now, getting computers to do computing proves alot more pragmatic than getting them to build a skyscraper. The limiting factor is applying AI to actual robotics, two completely different fields. I don't doubt that we can get there, but most people's conflation of AI and robotics today isn't based in reality. The future will be very interesting.
Going to create jobs because many of us will be deployed to battle as soldiers against the robots.
True nobody wants to work 80 hour weeks but a world without meaningful work will not produce a utopia- rather lots of people will have loads of free time. That can’t be good. Get ready for strife, revolution, carnality and selfishness to flourish
ANDREW YANG 2020
old man, you should have talked less
Why is he obsessed with the robot? People who sit at a computer all day should be scared of AI now
We all need to work less, and live more. Hurry up engineers of all kind. Build the robots! But we need to work together so we don't have robots fighting each other like humans.
Exactly, there will be more abundance overall and that’s a good thing. But we need programs like UBI or all of that abundance will naturally go into the hands of a few.
What if... we gave people wages equal to (or greater than) what they're earning now but for less time on the job? I’m ready to transition into a thirty-hour work week and let the robots do the rest man… labor is primitive stuff
It’ll be hard to do because there will be so much supply of labor, and in a free market there won’t be any incentive to pay these people more for less work. This is why UBI is needed.
@Competition Sports 2019 because there will be a point where A.I will leave no room to specialize, learning "new skills" will also be automated that is the problem.
Imposible to find happiness without effort, without work. A business target then will be to invent new ways humans are productive in a world mostly managed by machines.
That old anchor is scared that he will absolutely be replaced as well.
Universal Basic Income, or the Freedom Dividend, is the answer. Vote Andrew Yang for president! #yang2020
@Competition Sports 2019 I'm gonna go ahead and say it now, this comment WILL NOT age well. You have been warned.
he is speaking for freemason?
Interview we talked more than anyone else
this is cool. ai is here
WHO WOULD DENY THE OPORTUNITY TO BE REPLACED BY A ROBOT AND HAVE NOT TO WORK ANYMORE ? THE PROBLEM OS THAT I DONT SEE GOVERNMENT PAYING US FOR NOTHING, THEY WILL RATHER LET US STARVING TO DEATH BEFORE SUATAIN US, ESPECIALY IN POOR COUNTRIES LIKE AFRICA, BRAZIL, INDIA, ETC. AI WILL NOT BE THE SAME FOR POOR COUNTRIES AND FOR EUROPEANS.
How do you replace a cook? Screw financial analyst and stock broker by the way.
C Alex you don't generally and the idea that traders and analysts will be replaced easily is hubris. Their is a reason why investment analysists have diffrent ideas about a stock or have the same reasoning about a stock but for diffrent reasons
@@Wongseifu548 most analyst simply crunch numbers they're work is quantitative and quantitative work is easier done by machine
For ages, humanity has created & improved upon technologies to more effectively tackle our necessary responsibilities, even liberating from unnecessary investments of time that could then be used more productively. Those responsibilities were much more critical to our survival in the past, though it's made things incredibly more effective & comfortable over the last few centuries, to say the least. I'm the first to admit that I, for one, will not be assimilated into any damnedable singularity as some of the AI these days tend to frequently babble about, but I do feel that we are drawing closer to the optimal time for technology to take over most of our more mundane jobs, to say the least and liberate us perhaps towards our own next stage of transcendence as a species when at least the majority of folks who should even really want to do so, can break free from their homosapien hamster wheels and focus on things more purposeful or fulfilling than the old monotonous grind more for the sake of survival than anything, like getting back around towards that age old question, "Why are we here?" and perhaps even fulfilling that purpose, if possible, if only allotted the personal choice to do so, to say the least. I've no fear of machines. They may indeed trump us one day in analytical intellect, but I have a right brain, an intuitive mind that at least I, for one, am intimately familiar with...They don't. We actually -can- greatly complement each other and grow together vastly in both knowledge and potential capabilities. If only more people were less reactive, irrational & chickenshit, we might just at least decrease some percentage of probability that we're sooner then later going to freak out & -really- screw everything up worse.
AI, has the potential to replace all jobs.
Not just menial jobs, but Doctors, Lawyers, and Politicians can all be replaced too.
Of course those jobs wont be.
...Half Of All Jobs that nobody wants.
Old man said robots cant handle stairs, try saying that to boston dynamics, they'd probably send robots to shove his head in a toilet lmao
Really good question
Elon musk said it and now kai is saying it a.i will be our end
this news guy thinks we are making C3PO star wars robots to literally replace 1 worker with a robot equivalent... he doesn't realize 1 robot could replace dozens or hundreds of jobs, just look at the farming robots being developed, robots that pull weeds with AI, robots that pick chili peppers based on color
Yang2020!
Im a home builder, aint no robot taking my job
maxwell smart you win
for now.
yes, they will. Homes are going to be built out of other materials that are cheaper and better. They will be built by machines.
Check out the videos on just how they will be built. They are working on perfecting it as I type this. They are building homes.
3D printed homes that can built for as low as $4000 are around the corner. You may not be a home builder for long
💭...Basically it’s over with for most rich white mummies
the game rule of Capitalism, no job = death.
Give people more free time with no money to spend
It's here to stay ( sobbing!)
But where does our income come from if we are not employed? Are we gonna die of starving or what?
夏成超 tour goverment will redistribute resources to you.
UBI. it will be paid thru a value added tax on corporations/businesses. You will be free to travel, family, hobbies, inventing, arts, community garden, volunteer, education and more. prices of things will go down as abundance sets in. society will adapt
@@lilyblossom1240 and lillies will blossom eh?
Great. I hate working...
Yeah, it wont be like Star Trek. The $1000 per month stipend wont cover everything unless we make tech work for the benefit of man and not just for the Andrew Yang's of the world.
CEO and owners of companies or founders wont be able to tell AI what to do so haha to you KAI FU LEE
machines can't do empathy.
👍
Any body watch the Animatrix? Or play Deus ex? It’s great
..people are not going to find happiness without working because without working they won't have money...
UBI. why? Government and corporations can't have unrest. They aren't talking about this opening but corporations are.
Idle hands are the devils play thing, so it seems the devil will have a lot more idle hands to play with.
The robots are gonna take all the attractive women.
Joe is a terrible interviewer. Is he even aware of his aloofness?
This Kai-Fu Lee will be replaced too.....hahaha.
Here my arguement againist the idea that white collar jobs will be taken away easily. The fact is that if trading , accounting and analytics were purely quantitative endeavours we would everyone be having the same level of thinking/analysis on certain issues like the economy. Even ai you have to program it in a way that emphasis certain issues over another and you would have to continously update it with information in order to keep up
google china .....google is not even allowed in China.
No, China never banned google and google is now going back.
Google the search engine is not accessible in China.
MrPathorock theur buildung an ai research center their but in terms of the actual search engine its still banned
