Advice
Dr Pete Roberts
author of the best-selling book Ready for Tomorrow ; futurist
Robots will work everywhere, do almost all housework and help save lives during disasters and emergencies.
Some current jobs will disappear, but there will be
more challenging jobs like space pilots and AI experts.
AI will change the world in many ways, like smart refrigerators ordering food for us when we're running out.
Accept change. Keep learning and working hard.
