The robotics revolution is coming. Should economists be worried?
https://www.weforum.org/agenda/2017/03/should-economists-be-worried-about-artificial-intelligence
Rapid advances in robotics and automation technologies in recent years have coincided with a period of strong growth of lesser-skilled jobs
This post highlights some of the possible economic implications of the so-called “Fourth Industrial Revolution” — whereby the use of new technologies and artificial intelligence (AI) threatens to transform entire industries and sectors. Some economists have argued that, like past technical change, this will not create large-scale unemployment, as labour gets reallocated. However, many technologists are less optimistic about the employment implications of AI. In this blog post we argue that the potential for simultaneous and rapid disruption, coupled with the breadth of human functions that AI might replicate, may have profound implications for labour markets. We conclude that economists should seriously consider the possibility that millions of people may be at risk of unemployment, should these technologies be widely adopted.
Should economists be more concerned about Artificial Intelligence?
