(Newswire.net — April 18, 2019) — With the accelerated development of artificial intelligence and 3D printing, robots will expand to all corners of the rapid machining, covering the industry sector is not limited to services, technology and technology work is not spared. Then when people lose their jobs, their income is also deprived.

AI and Robots will Replace Humans after their High Development

Earlier, a British broadcaster had reported that French socialist Benoit Hamon won the 29th presidential nomination election and will represent the Socialist Party in the French presidential election. In his campaign speech, he proposed to issue a monthly income of 750 euros (about 5,500 yuan) to French adults. Benoit Hamon believes that the uniform distribution of monthly income is a buffer for France, which is increasingly subject to automation, because machines are taking the jobs of ordinary people. Dr Subhash Kak proposed that AI and robots will replace humans after their high development. Dr Subhash Kak, a top-ranking scientist in the industry and a computer expert at Oklahoma State University, said in an interview that as robots and artificial intelligence continue to improve, the machine ends. It will replace human beings and force humans into “infernal dystopian society.”

Judging from the employment problem of human beings, work brings people a sense of self-realization and value. With the AI and robots in charge of the world, this sense of self-realization will gradually be lost, making people’s lives “worthless, extremely tragic”, so some people think that the future world will be shrouded in despair.

More than 50% of the Work in the World will be Replaced by Robots

In a report on Labor Force Transformation in the Age of Automation, the world’s work to be replaced by robots accounted for more than 50%. By 2030, 800 million workers will be replaced by machines. It also assesses the types of work that may be replaced by automation over the next 13 years, reporting that physical work in stable environments (such as machine operators and fast food industry employees) is the easiest to replace with robots.

In addition, although the report stated that there will be new work, it also emphasizes that people may have to learn new skills in order to get these jobs. The report said, “Among the total unemployed population, there may be 75 to 375 million people who need to switch jobs and learn new skills.” For example, China is the country most affected by automation, and needs to change in absolute terms. The largest number of workers is available, reaching up to 100 million people by 2030, accounting for 12% of the total workforce.

Robots are stronger than humans, more adaptable to work under different conditions and environments, work more efficiently, and tireless, not lazy; although AI has no smarter wisdom than humans, it is already quite specific. In the field, human beings are far behind, and the ability to learn is no longer comparable to human beings.

Although these two are all created by human beings, it is not a strange thing to bring together the AI and robots of generations and even dozens of generations of wisdom and hard work to surpass the “creator” in the future.

The Emerging Tendency of Industrial Robots to Replace Human Labor

The full application of robots has brought about subversive changes in today’s production methods, efficiency, industrial structure and lifestyle. In the production mode, production shifts from centralized to decentralized, product homogenization to individualization, and a real-time optimized and self-organized industrial chain.

In plastic machining area, the popularity of industrial robots has created a super-trillion market with new industrial PCs, networked PLC/automation and communication components, high-precision sensors, smart instrumentation, intelligent production lines and other related plastic machining parts. According to industry experts, after the full application of robots, a large proportion of China’s population will be forced to transform into technicians or switch services and entrepreneurial solutions.

Of course, the far-reaching impact of the robot tide can only be proved by practice, but at present, China’s laws and regulations, ideology, social structure and other aspects have not yet been adequately prepared, but in any case, like cars instead of Hummer, computers instead of typewriters, the Internet instead of traditional communication methods, the trend of industrial robots replacing artificial labor has gradually appear.

Industrial Robots Allow us to Achieve a “Win-Win”

Advances in technology have increased productivity and have become a source of sustained economic growth, but the trend of industrial robots has benefited machine owners and users, and those who have been replaced by machines have to fall into unemployment and poverty. To deal with the structural unemployment brought about by automation, it is necessary to adjust the social redistribution structure, increase the wealth generated by the machine and increase the wealth created by the machine, and give back to the society in the form of public goods, such as providing basic living security , training to adapt the unemployed to new jobs and re-employment for the unemployed.

At present, the third industrial revolution represented by technologies such as robotics, artificial intelligence, 3D printing, and online collaborative manufacturing is on the rise. Machines with higher intelligence are evolving, and machines can perform more and more work cheaper than humans. Human intelligence has also been increasingly challenged. Therefore, by participating in cooperation with robots, we can win in the competition between machines and people. Otherwise, the rest will only be eliminated.

People are experiencing a huge socio-economic structural transformation, and many people will inevitably lose their jobs. People who used to think that they can find stable jobs as soon as they enter the university may be disappointed. The development of Industry 4.0 will bring good things, and it may be extremely destructive, and what peopel need now is a education that is completely different from the past.

WAYKEN RAPID MANUFATURING believes that intelligent robots can increase production capacity and promote social and economic development. The low-end labor force will be replaced by high-end labor, freeing people from heavy physical labor, so that they can have time and energy. Learn more about technology. Some studies in Europe have shown that an industrial robot can create 3.6 jobs. Therefore, this is not a game that you lose if you win. From the experience of developed countries, it can achieve a win-win situation.
