"Will the robots replace us? The future is very hard to predict, but we're very adaptive."

It's a wrap! This is our last episode on our mini-series on 'The Future of Work." Big thanks to my co-host this season, Dr. Joe Sweeney, who is a long time friend of the show and our guest expert in the areas of education and AI. You can learn more about him here.

In our survey "Parenting, Education, and The Future of Work," we asked parents about their worries and concerns as well as their hopes for their children in the future workplace. One fascinating question that sums up the fears parents have is "will the robots replace us"? Joe and I have fun answering this question and discussing:

• Parents' answers to "what jobs might come up in the future?" (lot's of fun answers like: AI Prompt Developer, Chief Productivity Officer, Robot Consultant)


• Will AI, Machine Learning, and Automation eliminate current jobs?


• How will machines and humans work together in the future workplace


• What jobs will be replaced and what jobs will stay

There's an infographic sheet that comes with each episode as a bit of advanced reading/homework for parents. Don't forget to download a copy!
