...steel mills that can produce 500k tons a year with 14 employees...machines that can diagnose cancer better than top doctors...machines that really can learn stuff. Huge -- to the order of at least hundreds of millions of people -- swathes of humanity are about to be made redundant. And at many levels of work. Then what? What is a good direction to send your kids in to have a prosperous working life?? I'm very interested in the topic, how people believe it will shape our futures, and what, if anything, the legislative response should/will be.

Beat me to it. The one profession a machine cannot do. A robot can even be PM. Oh and begging. A robot cannot beg well. Doesn't need a bed, food, Special Brew, Skag or Crack.

Electronics Engineers.....Engineers and scientists....but don't go into computer engineering. If you want to ensure your children have a well paid job, those are strong bets. For those that can't stand or do maths at all....Well jobs directly managing people aren't going anyway. Also Teaching......though I can't recommend this profession as a sensible career for any youngster other than the very driven who are obsessed with the idea.

Dont think you need to worry about it, come judgement day, it'll be the least of their worries.

Actually apparently there are -- apparently -- some incredible sex bots on the market. Storage is an issue. Apparently. And I'm not sure male prostitution has ever been that, erm, big.

We actually have a robot Prime Minister as evident within the Election given her seemingly automated chant of 'strong and stable...strong and stable'. Now to be heard reeling off in every sentence the following: 'Now let's get back to the job'. The Daleks are seriously concerned that THEY might receive P45s with a new race of Mays taking over = May-hem!
