5 Jobs that will disappear by 2033

Technology is on the rise every day. Artificial Intelligence (AI) is the order of the day in industries, health, education, manufacturing, transport, aviation, sports, and in all facets of life. Inventions and innovation define today’s world. Every day you wake up new development in science and technology come up and the way out is to catch up with the ever-changing world. How? You have to unlearn, relearn and learn. Learning has to become a habit. The 21st century is the era of a knowledge-based economy. As learning is the way to adapt to the increasing technology in today’s world. In the new economy, Artificial Intelligence (AI) is taking over jobs and gradually replacing humans in production, security, education, health, transport, banks, shopping malls, aviation, etc. below are some of the sectors where humans will be virtually replaced by robots:

THE CASHIER

Will be replaced by Self Checkouts There are already lots of grocery stores that have self-checkouts. In near future, this will be the norm, and human labour won’t be necessary anymore. The only thing that will change is that we will need more security to keep an eye on the customers.

THE TRUCK DRIVER

Will be replaced by Self Driving Trucks Artificial intelligence will soon be advanced enough to replace truck drivers. One of the main issues to solve is ethical problems like the trolley dilemma (would you kill 5 people to save one or save 5 to kill one in a situation that requires this decision). Basically, most monotonous jobs will be gone within a couple of decades. Disruption is natural and can’t be avoided.

WAREHOUSE WORKERS

Will be replaced by Automated Robots There is already a huge warehouse in China that doesn’t require average employees anymore. The robots transport the goods from point A to B, drive to their charging station whenever they run out of battery and a replacement unit jumps in to fill the hole fully automated. Human labour in the warehouse will be gone very soon.

CAB DRIVERS

Will be replaced by Automated Cars Cab drivers already have to fight with Uber and Taxify but long term they will be hit with the same problem as the truck drivers – self-driving cars. Once this innovation is ready, millions of jobs will be affected. Companies like TESLA and Hyundai are already in the race, soon Apple will be launching its first Self Driving Car in the market and then the world will be changed forever.

TRAVEL AGENTS

Will be replaced by Website Bookings Let’s be honest, when was the last time you visited a local travel agency to book your trip? This business is already DEAD! The only people who still book their vacation at the local travel agency are grandparents. It’s the previous generation. Travel agencies will be gone very soon.

Point Of Reflect

Change is inevitable, disruption is natural and can’t be avoided. Embrace innovation today. Upgrade yourself to fit into the new economy. The paradigm shift is on the go.
