Will robots take our jobs? | CNBC Explains 

"Nah im only joking, not really" --- WTF, thats super casual, were doomed

Robots will be able to programme themselves very soon so skilled workers in the tech industry are not off the hook too.

One thing i noticed very clearly while growing up was the automation of customer support. I remember less than 15 years ago when everything was done by people, then i remember the very robotic voices asking for you to press numbers, and now they ask you yes or no questions with almost perfect human voices and trying speak im a natural way. Once a bank called my home number by mistake amd the almost humam voice asked if i was the person they wanted, yes or no, and i forgot i was talking to a computer and i automatically said "there is no one here with this name" and they answered in their almost natural voice "oh ok, sorry for the mistake. Please disregard this call. Have a nice day"

"Someone has to program the robots" Keep dreaming. Robots will program themselves.

They say automating jobs will lead to growth in different fields, but companies will be looking to automate those jobs too.

The hardest part of my job is not automating myself and everyone else out of a job. With technology where it is today, it's easier said than done.

Will Robots Take Our Jobs? The long answer is: "Yes". The short answer is: "Affirmative".

yall underestimate how difficult and stressful programming is!

It's coming and there's nothing you can do!

Yea but not everyone wants to be a programmer how do you answer to that??

detroit become human is real

And iam thinking how bright is my future 😭😞

Basic income will be the only key ..no need to suffer everyone after automation ..it's so disgusting that we live in automation age but still fighting with poverty.. ridiculous system

Listen Robots will one day in the future will become aware of our actions and then will become more smart and act on their own.

Haven’t any of you seen the Detroit game? Like the characters said, not only is it a game, but this will be the future. *aaaaand this video proves that point*

Robots have replaced human work force in so many fields already. It is a bit worrying tbh and I don't understand why so many people can't see it yet. Demand for human workforce already went down dramatically in factories, stores, banks and other sectors are there to follow. In banking in UK for example many people lost jobs as self service stations and online banking got introduced. Yet the population is growing year on year. ..

If Robots can get into the workforce, we don't have to worry about working anymore. No more harassment, no more boss from hell to put up with, no more having to work hard. We can enjoy life and everything for free! :D

They can sing 😂 we’re doomed

with those "new jobs" they're talking about, it'll only be available for 1% of people who are displaced due to automation, so where does that leave for the remaining 99%? We have to get ready and start moving towards making sure all people are provided for.

Pros: You don't need to work anymore. Cons: How do you earn money? Ask your robot to help your work? That'll be something.

A robot took my job two years ago. I'm unemployed since then

It's great to have robots taking over the jobs ..but not if it means the people still left WITH jobs have to work just as long and as hard as ever while the rest are unemployed..It must be made financially worthwhile for people to start sharing the jobs left and working LESS. There can be no such thing as a shortage of jobs..there can only be a shortage of people sharing the work. There could still be full employment even if we only had to work one day a month because so many jobs have been taken over by robots once we escape the stupid notion that we must work around 40 hours a week.

We humans are our own worst enemies, people have become lazy and entitled, they want robots to do all the messy and hard work, leaving people unemployed and broke, where's the tax money coming from when a robot takes a human job, were writing ourselves out of existence

This does not have to be the future. Push back because understand while these companies are saving money and the rich man is only got get more wealthy EVERYONE ELSE will suffer. You will have no job or income. Regulations must be made so that future Americans will have jobs

I can’t decide who’s more adorable: the robot or the reporter

DEY TOOK OUR JERBS!

Nothing or no thing will take my career away from me. Bring it on, robots

you better believe it ,it will come true

Interesting and learn a lot! Thanks CNBC

They should focus on replacing politicians with robots. Robots do not corrupt, they are not greedy. 😇

i have a friend who actually works in a company which makes these robots and he says that its just skilled workers left now in their production facilities now simple tasks are all automated

I love how she says that jobs are going to open up oh yeah because I want to be a f****** robot programmer that's basically what you're telling me

I don't mind robots doing the shitty 9-5 slave jobs instead of us. We complain about having slave jobs. As long as we get universal basic income enough for us to survive and people make money online business and not being controlled by a dictatorship.

You guys should watch the many many clips on the net that dive into this much deeper, and they have already explained why you can't compare the automotive boom to AI. In the next few years we may have more jobs on hi tech but 20-40 years is where everything changes.

We need robots for every scene in life. 10 robots for every person.

Look at that robot's expressions

You can either own a robot, or a robot will own You.

Robot soldiers are perfect tools to replace our soldiers that got discharged from our military

Why people are scared of robots?? If human jobs are replaced by robots that means humans can create more important jobs/work.

They will never be like people no matter how hard they try and definitely not be. Better... they're fooling themselves.

Robots will make a better future

Bad idea in my opinion .

'Will roboats take our jobs?' The title is ridiculous. They have been doing that for decades. Look at the auto manufacturing industry, for a start. The all robots may not have 2 arms and 2 legs but they are marching into every industry, regardless. There are even robotic delivery machines on the street, at the moment.

I've played fallout new vegas , I remember in the sunset sasperilla factory, robots took over the peoples jobs, hopefully this doesent actually happen. You know why they put robots instead? Robots dont ask for a salary. For those who played new Vegas they know that most were fired.

They are only allowed for industries to increase production but they will never be self-programming

That's scary 😬

Humans are working very hard to replace themselves 🙂

Will Smith tried to warn us in the movie

"Even looks like us" - not to sure about that

If I hear one more argument about why robots will NOT "take over" human jobs because back in the 1800 when railroads (industrialization) came on the scene... Intelligent machines add a different dimension to the consideration.

This is a very short term outlook of robotics and A.I. watch Kurtzgesagt's video explaining A.I. and you will see why academics are correct. You should be afraid of automation. Edit: CGPgrey also has a video called "Humans need not apply" and "How Machines Learn" content that will help further your knowledge on the issue.

No! Anything but that! We humans are supposed to be the dominant species, so we have to grow wiser along with technology and not just leave every concern to technology!

I have to agree with Robo Thespian, he's right, robot's wont replace people's jobs, they could only take over the people's jobs only of one parts of the job is dangerous, like cleaning buildings that are like sky scrapers, for example. Now that one is dangerous. Because you know the type of dangerous consequences.

why do people get so worried about robots taking menial, labor intensive jobs? this would be a great thing for all of us. our population could be reduced, the planet would be healthier and humans would have the greatest freedom we've ever experienced to explore and create. our kind (and our planet) would be the envy of all the galaxy! 👍

We need freedom from all jobs immediately

robots will be the perfect company worker. humans will be begging for money.

I'm gonna have new job Robot destroyer !!!! Might as well call me the Terminator.

I made 160 billion electronic parts holders for computer chips for robots.

I want a robot to do my homework

Thanks for the video!! :)

bien joué c’est vraiment une bonne vidéo !

Fan fact. English textbook Headway has used some fragments as educational video for upper intermediate English learners.

This is were society really needs to look at UBI "Universal basic income " . Humans jobs in programming robots will not exist, if you want to create a human you use people, same analogue too create machine programming you use another machine. Thier won't be much for Humans to do by the end of this century apart from getting on with living as human beings. Yes Thier will be other jobs but what and how long will they last before they get or become automated and robotised too .

If I owned a retail company I'd put all the merchandise in vending machines and send home any employee without a college degree. Just as an experiment to see how it affected my business.

Hopefully,if the aim is correct. It would be a bonus to humans. If governments in each country, do use robots in production etc creating a good economy,humans won't need to work,and will receive a wage from the government.

I think with all these hateful thoughts humans clearly have over robots, it might keep them from having too much influence.

so scary why are they making these

In India population is nearly 130 crores. As on 2021 , unemployed was 5.30crores.doyou want to give employment or introduce robots and take away the jobs from people who are already employed? Employers should think and act in this technology advanced world. Of course robots do not need wages vacation physicl and mental stress which the human beings come across. But they do not have stomach and other live organs. They do not need water and food for functioning the organs, whereas humans take water and food for their survival, otherwise they will die. Supply of blood will stop and brain and heart will collapse. People work and earn money only for basic necessities like food , water, cloth and shelter. So all govts and employers of both private and public sectors in India and around the globe should think this basic and take decisions. Hazardous jobs where high risk is for human life in danger can be taken by these humanoid robots. Thanks

Yes

Our humans are creating these Robots, so they're to blame imo

In a factory 5 people do a work in 1 hours and 2 robots do that work in 5 mints with double accuracy, So obviously the owner choose the robots to work in factory. Like u can do 100 things from ur smartphone which u can't do before like shoping,Uber etc. It doesn't mean that smartphone takes humans jobs. Just low skill workers have to find some other works, which is not too hard for them .

As they start to do ,some humans might notice and decide to fight back to their own benefit. At times of distress desperate humans may gang up to fight the technological system back.i think as per machines being built so will prisons have to be built in relation to counter balance jobless humans. By then i dont think they ll keep making up trillions of dollas for stimulus payments.

Human life could just end them self if people want robots to replace.

“Sky net comes on line in 2029.” Rise of the machines?

Being so advance in making robots can be dangerous for human in the future trust me

In my opinion there gone be War between Robots and human in future 💥

Only a matter of time until the robots program themselves..

STMG GANG

G pas lu

It's a difficult question for now, but low skill workers would be affected irrespective of the domain..

Can someone please explain to me why having the ability to illuminate meaningless boring and mundane/drudgery work is a bad thing? Why in the world can't we just let the bots take over the workforce and let people go back to school or we could all just learn to live with less stuff aka junk and start to reconnect with other human beings and volunteer YES volunteer our time to help improve the lives of others around us. We would no longer work because we NEED to but because we would actually WANT to because it would feel good knowing that we aren't just working to produce an unnecessary amount of wealth for a single person or family/group but instead to support others. We could pressure higher education. It would be a dream come true but...NO we can't have it because some asshole wants to have a big mansion with a yacht and a super fast car along with 10 to 20 other super fast cars and he also wants a private jet case he can't be bothered to set next to another person. And don't give me this crap about there not being enough to go around. The amount of food the retail industries wast every day is unreal.

Yeah but we bring life and originality to what we do, it's bound to happen but it won't feel good to us humans

Honestly if I could choose between a low-skill illegal immigrant or automation, I will definitely choose automation hands down, because there needs to be a alternative solution to handle the labor shortages, due to the younger generation that are demanding money but aren't willing to work to earn that money.

Someone has to program the robots. Yes, until we build robots that can program robots. Robots definitely can and likely will take our jobs.

I swear our species (Homo sapiens) are the ONLY ONES that are capable of making its VERY OWN species disappear lol. Why do I say this? I say this because the robots do not (for the most part) have thDepression, Anxiety, and/or sorrow" As we know, these are all HUMAN emotions that we don't like. That said, the computer gave a contradicted answer, which was: Because all of these are HUMAN emotions, in order for those emotions to NOT to exist, then HUAMNS CANNOT exist... Now it's us vs. them

So everyone will be a programmer right?

I need a ai robot to assist me with doing technical repairs without many years of technical experience that I can’t afford to hire. Is that why we’re worried robots taking over? The in control will lose they powers.

why does she look like alice from detroit become human?...

Hopefully

With the way the customer service is in today’s - particularly USA big cities -I don’t mind robots.

I hope One day robot will taken our jobs...so we can relax especially in agriculuture sector...

This is why you need an education

There should be a act called the robot removal act

I wish robots can do something about the school system

Already any kind of robotic machines are working in shops, supermarkets

Thanks for the updates please

there will be the day when robots can program itself there will be no need of programmers in the near future but i know jobs will be completely different

Once the robots can program the robots we are all done.

Skynet begins...
