2. Workers are able to adjust to changing technological endowments by switching tasks to prevent unemployment. 
3. Technological change also creates additional jobs through demand for new technologies and through higher competitiveness. ]]> 2018-10-18 19:56:05 UTC https://padlet.com/hoichuenshek/4bg0amig6jnt/wish/294594053 hoichuenshek https://padlet.com/hoichuenshek/4bg0amig6jnt/wish/294600812 1. The automation has led to the result that while the GDP is rising, median income  is not, and inequality is rising as well.
2. High-skill positions that take advantage of computer, and low-skill positions which are hard to automate may be growing, while the mid-skill jobs are disappearing.]]> 2018-10-18 20:15:57 UTC https://padlet.com/hoichuenshek/4bg0amig6jnt/wish/294600812 hoichuenshek https://padlet.com/hoichuenshek/4bg0amig6jnt/wish/294610601 1. Robots' impact on productivity is significant compared to other technologies
2. The use of industrial robots is worldwide, especially in Europe and Asia.
3. There is no relationship between a country's use of robots and the percentage of manufacturing jobs lost.]]> 2018-10-18 20:48:49 UTC https://padlet.com/hoichuenshek/4bg0amig6jnt/wish/294610601 hoichuenshek https://padlet.com/hoichuenshek/4bg0amig6jnt/wish/294648464 1. The automation and robotics actually change the  job market in a way of structural switch.
2. The modern technologies of automaton and robotics lead to the polarization of wage in US market.]]> 2018-10-19 00:16:12 UTC https://padlet.com/hoichuenshek/4bg0amig6jnt/wish/294648464 hoichuenshek https://padlet.com/hoichuenshek/4bg0amig6jnt/wish/294649612 1. Artificial intelligence are destroying jobs in some professions but creating more in others.
2. Artificial intelligence grows high-wage occupations and shrink low-wage ones.
3. Wage inequality is growing in occupation with above-average artificial intelligence use.]]> 2018-10-19 00:23:52 UTC https://padlet.com/hoichuenshek/4bg0amig6jnt/wish/294649612 hoichuenshek https://padlet.com/hoichuenshek/4bg0amig6jnt/wish/294652329 1. Automation is more likely to alter jobs instead of eliminating them.
2. Automation is more likely to be task-based but job-based, which means, workers will shift to have new roles instead of losing jobs. ]]> 2018-10-19 00:42:53 UTC https://padlet.com/hoichuenshek/4bg0amig6jnt/wish/294652329 hoichuenshek https://padlet.com/hoichuenshek/4bg0amig6jnt/wish/294660505 Lee, K.

Routine, single-domain jobs such as customer service, telemarketing, and other routine blue-collar and white-collar work will definitely be replaced by AI, since in those area, AI excels over the human by a large margin.
2. The history tells us that every technology revolution has created new jobs when it replaced old ones, but this may not be the case again.
3. It will soon be obvious that half our tasks can be done better at almost no cost by AI. This will be the fastest transition humankind has experienced, and we’re not ready for it.]]> 2018-10-19 04:24:51 UTC https://padlet.com/hoichuenshek/4bg0amig6jnt/wish/294683206
