The future of job layoffs and unemployment may come primarily from the rise of robots and automation:
1. As robots can perform almost any tedious machine operation, human work will be reduced , thereby reducing employment demand;
2. The emergence of artificial intelligence and machine learning will lead to the replacement of a large number of low-skilled, process-based jobs, including some transaction processing jobs;
3. Professional service industries will also be replaced by automation and intelligent equipment, such as finance, medical and other industries;
4. Many traditional jobs themselves will face challenges from networked, physical, informatized and other industries Huge impact, such as logistics, taxis, catering and other industries.
In short, due to the development of technology in the future, there will be layoffs and unemployment in a large number of occupations. Therefore, we can prepare ourselves and acquire new skills to adapt to changing work demands.
