The future of skills in the age of AI | David Timis | TEDxLuxembourgCity

You can't lose your job to AI if you don't have a job in the first place

[alanboss]

how many others thought he would tell us about new jobs and skills with the addition of AI

[SpeedyCorky]

5 years ago plenty of people were making youtube videos and making a living off them.
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

[agatasmolak]

Great speech, make me think about future of young people in job market

[izkbunch]

No machines can fix our lack of humanity.

우리는 이제 4차 산업혁명 시대의 과도기를 겪고 있다고 생각합니다. 많은 직업들이 사라질 것이고 많은 부분들이 인공지능에 의해서 대체 될 것 같은데 그런 앞으로 다가올 미래에 대한 통찰력을 제공해주셔서 감사합니다.

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.

Industrial revolution created wealth disparity between Europe and Asia. Something similar will happen when AI emerges. These advancements are good for rich persons

[andrewcarter]

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.
Tell it to a truck driver, or motel worker that depends on truckers stopping for the night.

AI in the form of voice-recognition took my job. I used to be a medical transcriber.

[johnkopplin]

Driving jobs, pilots, fast food any machine operator and all of manufacturers jobs

[_BobaFett_]

“What, you’re developing something called ‘Farming’?

NOOO!!!!


....but, that’ll just take away my job, which I love, of hunting and gathering in the Forrest!”

[PhiloPommier]

You will have more time, they say that for decades.

[donqzxqzxold]

The experts talk about how to cope with the age of AI by acquiring skills like cumminication, collaboration, creativity, critical thinking, adaptability, resilience and continuous learning but they ignore the fact that these skills are belong them-the experts-the successful one-the top 5%. The fact is that the average person, the norms, the bottom 80% of population will never ever have those skills to cope with the AI era in any foreseeable future.

[SShendrik]

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.

[rkalla]

Humans are fundamentally problem solvers (to a large extent I think this is our purpose - like a giant organic computer) and I love/agree the point that we should come at this from a place Love, not Fear. If you look at it from Fear you can't see 6" beyond your feet. If you look with Love, AI will become one of the most incredible tools to advance existence.

[yoyo-jcqg]

i dunno, if ai is anything like living creatures its gonna be pretty brutal, just watch animal planet or pay attention to how micro organisms behave, its always a fight with one side losing

[dibashkhadka]

Technological revolution took place before too but nobody given the machine to create one thought

[daysinv]

Maybe AI could help us solve problems like food production, space travel ....

[captainfx]

What about if, we actually replicate consciousness. Well that would be 💯 right. AI can do whatever I can do with consciousness. I feel I shouldn't take to heart what he is saying. It seems to have a little Chewbacca defense embedded in there. 🤮
