Question

What are the open questions and challenges in the future of jobs?


Answer
  • Will future make large sections of population economically useless (Harari in his book)?
  • What solutions will societies find for displaced and unemployable people?
  • Will politicians protect obsolete joins or protect people instead (switch to new jobs or UBI (universal basic income) /UBS (universal basic services))?
  • Thomas penally and colleagues: top 1% of Americans hold 49% of wealth in America whereas 90% has 27% of wealth —> Digitalization and automation will increase concentration of wealth (if no political interventions)
