Tech: Will Robots Take Over Jobs? Good News For Scientists, Bad News For Finance by mustyhboy(m): 9:15pm On Jun 05, 2015
Are you worried about robots replacing you in the workplace? Data from the University of Oxford shows that both white collar and blue collar jobs that require greater routine are most likely to become almost fully automated, while jobs where creative solutions are needed are less at risk.

Dr Carl Benedikt Frey and Michael Osborne of the Oxford Martin School at Oxford University have been researching the impact of robotics on employment for several years, and their latest report Technology at Work: The Future of Innovation and Employment shows that big data and the Internet of Things (IoT) could have huge consequences on even white collar skilled labour jobs.

Their report builds on earlier research from 2013, where Frey and Osborne analysed 702 professions to see whether the job required creative intelligence, social intelligence or perception and physical manipulation in order to complete it.

The researchers analysed whether individuals had to negotiate with or persuade other parties, whether personal customer service was required, whether original or clever solutions were needed, and whether the data being processed could be taken on by a computer instead.

The bill also provides $13 billion to subsidize state and local governments. It includes an agreement to protect Americans from surprise medical bills. While the legislation does not expand SNAP eligibility, it does offer a substantial relief for those in need. You are curious to know more about international news, browse this site.
