If You Have These Skills, No Robot Will Ever Take Your Job

Kayla Matthews March 29, 2017 7 minutes

Losing your job to robots is no longer a sci-fi fantasy. Some estimates say robots may take over more than five million jobs across 15 developed countries. Machines could account for more than half the workforce in places like Cambodia and Indonesia, particularly in the garment industry.

The good news: there are some skills robots can’t embody, and if you have them, there’s no need to worry about losing your job due to robotic advancements. Better yet, many of them are transferable, meaning they can help you advance your career, even if you need to change industries.

Here are four skills that can keep your job from being handed off to a robot.

(I) _______ Skills

Robots seem smart. However, they only know what their programmers tell them. There are some exceptions, such as robots powered by machine learning that get smarter through acquired feedback over time. Even so, people able to demonstrate the ability to work out solutions using analytical thinking, such as IT personnel, can feel confident about job security during the rise of robots.

(II) ______Skills

This broad group of skills applies to many jobs, whether you’re leading a team of 20 people who are hard at work developing a new iPhone app or maintaining an upbeat, productive workforce at a Fortune 500 company. People often depend on robots to complete segments of projects, but those machines can’t manage huge organizational accomplishments from start to finish. Also, robots can’t feasibly handle all the things human resource experts do.

(III) ,_____ Skills

Even the most advanced robots can’t genuinely practice the crucial skill of understanding what people feel. This skill is especially useful if you work for a charity, support statistically disadvantaged segments of the population, or assist people in the healthcare industry.

(IV) _____ Skills

One inevitable thing about robots is they malfunction. When that happens, people need to know how to read error codes, make educated diagnoses, and perform repairs. (...).

U.S. Navy’s USS Carl Vinson in Rio

By Jaylan Boyle, Senior Contributing Reporter - March 9,2010

RIO DE JANEIRO - Late last month, fresh from playing a key role in Operation Unified Response, the international humanitarian aid mission to assist Haiti after the disastrous earthquake, the U.S. aircraft carrier USS Cari Vinson made a stopover in Rio de Janeiro. The purpose of the trip was to strengthen bilateral military relations, and a number of U.S, sailors also took part in a series of volunteer exercises in the city.

“We appreciate the strong relationship that has developed between the military forces of our two countries. It is an interaction based on mutual respect, and our intention is to further strengthen our partnerships and joint missions,” said Thomas Shannon, the U.S. Ambassador of Brazil.

On February 27th, sailors from the carrier were involved in volunteer work that involved painting facilities at two Recreio public schools, Escola Municipal Vice-Almirante Alvaro Alberto and Escola Municipal Vice-Almirante Paulo Moreira. They were joined by about 20 of their fellow Brazilian sailors, and had the opportunity to get to know their colleagues and share experiences of life in the navy. After work was completed, the two schools were presented with photo collages commemorating the visit.

Another project that U.S. sailors participated in took place at the People’s Centra! Institute, a local community center in the Gamboa neighborhood which was founded by an American missionary over a century ago. The center helps local working parents by offering a daycare service, and provides a venue for the hosting of various cultural and sporting activities.

In addition to helping with painting and other maintenance tasks, the sailors, perhaps wearied after their labors, were well defeated by a team of local children in a friendly game of soccer. All of the children were given a USS Carl Vinson baseball cap and packed lunches.

The goodwill mission also involved further sporting fixtures between the sailors of both nations, although results have not been reported. A reception for around 400 guests was also held aboard the carrier.

International media was mainly focusing on the positive aspects of the visit: the only aberration on that theme was a French Agency reportedly questioning the motive of the mission, seeing it as an attempt to sway Brazil’s government into buying American military hardware.

"Innovative" IBM Kills Working from Home

If you would list the reasons why IBM's growth isn't what management wants it to be, geographic dispersal probably wouldn't be in the top ten. WFH only works if you can actually assess on an ongoing basis what work is getting done, but then again that's true for in-office work as well. Lazy managers assume work is getting done if you're in the office, just as delusional ones assume everyone works productively and independently if they are remote. But if the actual performance goes down due to lower motivation and wasted time, then it is a problem.
