Science, Technology, Engineering and Math.
Studies for students who want to work in 20 years
should include sciences specifically in Science,
Technology, Engineering and Math. Chemistry
studies will also be very helpfull since chemistry
helps explain the other sciences.
Chemistry (chemical science) helps inform us of
and understand many of the other sciences.
Some scientists have predicted that within
about 20 years, robots will take over or be capable
of taking over about 40% or more of the jobs humans
do right now. That should not be a surprise, Humans
have been automating work for decades. Look at the
industries of automotive and semiconductor jobs.
they have been robotized or automated for years
and that trend will not stop.
You must have noticed projects involving self-driving
cars. That is a strong and obvious trend that will not
stop. Automated (AI) drivers are just more predictable,
cheaper and safer when they are controlable.
Gaming and playing realistic games DRIVES other forms
of AI and computer technology, such as a remote-control
character/machine by doing anything "by wire" or
by "WI-FI," or by using the Internet, cloud, and other
network systems.
Now, you might ask; "Why does science, technology,
engineering and math become important?" The answer is
not too hard to understand, when you think about the
trends. Science, Engineering, Technology and Math are
the sciences and jobs required when robots replace
many jobs that humans currently do.
It's O.K. if you don't want to be a geek, as some
baby-boomers say. Other jobs will still be required
by a human, such as jobs and occupations or careers
that need or require creativity. Designers, Musicians,
Actors and Song-writers may keep their jobs longer
than taxi-cab, automobile drivers, truck drivers,
accountants and lawyers. But even doctors, physicians,
surgeons and chiropractors will find robots are able
to learn (deep learning,) replicate and perform their
actions and solve problems, after some recognition
training and machine-learning with neural networks.
Within twenty years (20 yrs,) you will want to
have learned for yourself and/or made sure that your
children have learned as much as possible about
Science, Engineering, Technology and Math if they
want to work or do labor for a living.
