Shift Change - The Rise of Robots

The tech industry is on the verge of a radical change. A work world comprised of cognitively aware robots.

The project known as Industry 4.0 is a revolutionary transformation in which robots and machines equipped with artificial intelligence will enter the work environment. A transition into a new digital era! “Industry 4.0 will possibly become the absolute largest challenge of the world”, says Klaus Schwab, founder of the World Economic Forum in Davos. But he also warns against a negative drawback. A shift from people to machines will render people obsolete and result in millions of people losing their livelihoods. Digitalization and internet connectivity will affect the number of positions available in a company. Join us as we tackle the questions: What will the work environment look like in the future? and Will there still be a need for people?
