You Will Lose Your Job to a Robot-and Sooner Than You Think - Mother Jones - 0 views

  •  
    I want to tell you straight off what this story is about: Sometime in the next 40 years, robots are going to take your job. I don't care what your job is. If you dig ditches, a robot will dig them better. If you're a magazine writer, a robot will write your articles better. If you're a doctor, IBM's Watson will no longer "assist" you in finding the right diagnosis from its database of millions of case studies and journal articles. It will just be a better doctor than you.

    Can machines (e.g. robots) act and behave like humans? More to the point, do we want them to? Making them more and more like us humans could be a blueprint for another flawed species!

  •  
    As automation technologies such as machine learning and robotics play an increasingly great role in everyday life, their potential effect on the workplace has, unsurprisingly, become a major focus of research and public concern.

    it took decades for saddle makers and carriage builders to adjust to the disruptive rise of the automobile. In contrast, travel agents had less than five years to rechart their careers after Expedia, Orbitz and other travel sites took hold. Financial planners? Mammography technicians? Once the software programmers get their algorithms right, these and many other jobs could disappear or change very in the relative blink of an eye.

  •  
    The world's biggest artificial intelligence companies, including Facebook and Google, have joined forces to mould the ethical rules that will govern how robots and computer programs behave in the future.
  •  
    About time and welcome. I hope that those with experience of medical ethics are also involved. For two reasons; medicine is likely to be a major player and beneficiary of AI (eg personalised drugs) and medical ethics is a mature field that is used to responding to rapid innovation.

    The coming-of-age of artificial intelligence, 'social robots' and big data is having a massive impact on the way decisions are made in organisations. It follows that if we are to maximise know-how and expertise, the outputs from this technology-enabled channel must be integrated into how we work. Augmenting judgment and experience in this way also supports the move towards evidence-based decision making.

How much should we fear the rise of artificial intelligence? | Tom Chatfield | Opinion ... - 0 views

  •  
    The image of a robot stepping into the shoes of a human worker couldn't be more wrong. When it comes to technology's most significant applications, we are neither usurped or seduced - because the systems involved are nothing like us in either their function or faculties.
