Title: Humans need not apply (for future jobs)

If you're certain about your job-security, you may want to watch this video, or even send it to someone who could use a dousing of reality.

Wow, I truly wonder what is to become of the 45% of unemployable people. This is an insane figure. There's no way a government can sustain half of their citizens without jobs. What kind of jobs do you guys think will be a fitting replacement for all these people? I'd really like some creative answers to this problem. I can't think of anything and the problem is really real.

The answer is creative jobs.
Robots won't write novels/symphonies, come up with concepts for TV or films, design games, etc.
Get into the media industry and you should be fine.

I assume the both of you saw that bit in the vid?

45% of the people cannot start jobs in the creative sector.

So you're how old now?  What's your current employment status again?

Interesting Vid, only time will tell how much it affects people! Luckily I do my own Business and It'll be good for my working Life, after that is some other Genius's problem  ## :woeh: but i imagine 50 years from now will be very different to how things are now.
