On Sunday night, I watched 60 Minutes because there was a segment about very expensive robots being created to clean up nuclear waste in Japan. Despite the fact that the first robot failed within minutes of operation, robots cleaning up toxic waste isn’t necessarily a bad idea. However, it reminded me of all the other jobs that I keep hearing about that are already being done or will eventually be done by robots.
Within the last month, I saw a news story about the first Artificial Intelligence (AI) news anchor being introduced in China. My local news anchors complained about the idea of eventually being replaced by robots. Ha – welcome to the nightmare.
Walmart is already using robots in their warehouses. Kroger has plans to do the same. McDonald’s has replaced human employees with technology, too. Don’t even get me started on automated and unmanned vehicles. I’m sure there are plenty more examples that I’m not even aware of yet.
