Mediation future: solutions

Summarize the changes in the world of work as predicted by Till Leopold for an article in the school newspaper and add a personal comment.

Quelle, Einleitung

Till Leopold says

today: the greater part of work is done by humans, this will change:
by 2025: computers and robots will take over
human work, however, will be augmented by machines → more efficient
an estimated 75 million jobs will be lost by 2025
this will happen in industry/production as well as (increasingly) in office work (e.g. accounting, any kind of repetitive jobs)
this will also enable people to work more creatively
estimated number of new jobs: 133 million
it is difficult to say which kind of new jobs will be created as we might not know most of them yet,
probably mostly jobs connected with technological development
according to data from the US, people who retrain will be fit for new options and some of them will even earn higher wages
those who for various reasons will not retrain will be an issue
as a consequence, companies and unions will have to cooperate in order to meet the challenge worldwide
