GLOBAL PERSPECTIVE:
Technology has always help to increase economic growth,
ameliorate standards of living, and opened up path to new and
better type of work. Recent improvement in artificial intelligence
and machine learning, which brought us to self-driving cars, mark
the beginning of a very determinant shift in the world as we
know it.
Current technological advancement has led to a higher relative
demand for skilled workers and a lower relative demand for
workers performing regular activities. The use of computers in
the workplace has been the main force driving changes in the
salary of skilled workers relative to the wages of unskilled
workers.

employment” .
national/local perspective
However, most of the labor force will be in the tech industry. Robots may
eventually decrease human employment, but the robotics industry will also give
rise to new jobs. According to a recent news, between 2017 and 2037, robots will
replace around 7 million people at work.
Possible scenarios
The negative impact of Technology on jobs:
The immediate consequence of new technologies will be job losses because most jobs
will become redundant. Machines and automation will replace low-skilled workers. If
any enterprise do not replace human labor with technology, it is susceptible to losses
due to heavy rivalry from other companies which use technology. So, it is unavoidable
for companies to catch up with the technologies. In this process, low-skilled workers
will be the first section to be separate from the jobs. As a consequence of that,
income inequalities are further spread.
