Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and Emerging Technologies
summary
Concrete claims and concrete tools: a report predicts 50% of job classifications replaced by 2030, COVID causes 21–22 million unemployed now, and examples include a robot-performed rotator cuff surgery, Sam’s Club scan-and-go checkout, kiosks at McDonald’s, drone delivery and 3D printing replacing assembly. Notes on failures: biased ATS and Equifax breach show automation can harm users; outreach using GitHub Docker GitLab and OpenShift actually spreads skills. Practical advice: retool, teach others, and automate the boring parts yourself.
