Robots may not be shooting at us with laser guns by 2035, but they might have many of our jobs if this new report is any indication.
According to a new report, robots will take away 35% of human jabs in twenty years.
Scientists have created a huge, in-depth analysis of what jobs are under threat from robots — with salesmen, chefs and even models all in the firing line.
Researchers have assembled a full list of all the things that robots are good and bad at, and so what jobs they are likely to take. In all, about 35 per cent of jobs are likely to have been taken on by robots in the next 20 years, the researchers said.
Some professions–such as therapists, personal trainers and teachers — are safe from the coming robot apocalypse. But those that require repetitive skills, the manipulation of data or manual entering of information could see their jobs taken away.
So maybe the robots don’t have to kill us with warfare. They’ll just starve us out by taking our jobs.
