Where are the world's jobs going?
In the U.S., India, China, Europe, Asia -- everywhere?
And how will they be replaced?
Here's a fascinating video interview with some experts, from last Sunday's "60 Minutes":
From the video:
"Economic
evolution has been going on for centuries and society has always
successfully adapted to technological change creating more jobs in the
process.
But Erik Brynjolfsson and Andrew McAfee of MIT think this time may be different.
Erik Brynjolfsson:
Technology is always creating jobs. It’s always destroying jobs. But
right now the pace is accelerating. It’s faster we think than ever
before in history. So as a consequence, we are not creating jobs at the
same pace that we need to.
Andrew McAfee: And we ain’t seen nothing yet.
The
changes are coming so quickly it’s been difficult for workers to
retrain themselves and for entrepreneurs to figure out where the next
opportunities may be.
