More From Tim O'Reilly about the 'WTF'!' Economy (Video)On August 12 we ran two videos of Tim O'Reilly talking with Slashdot's Tim Lord about changes in how we work, what jobs we do, and who profits from advances in labor-saving technology. Tim (O'Reilly, that is) had written an article titled, The WTF Economy, which contained this paragraph: "What do on-demand services, AI, and the $15 minimum wage movement have in common' They are telling us, loud and clear, that were in for massive changes in work, business, and the economy." We're seeing a shift from cabs to Uber, but what about the big shift when human drivers get replaced by artificial intelligence' Ditto airplane pilots, burger flippers, and some physicians. WTF' Exactly. Once again we have a main video and a second one available only in Flash (sorry about that), along with a text transcript that covers both videos. Good thought-provoking material, even if you think you're so special that no machine could possibly replace you. Read more of this story at Slashdot.
