The Exponential Era is coming.
Yet western societies have a fundamental structural problem: the robots are coming to take our jobs. Governments will have a hard time fighting unemployment because of the disruptive innovation that is replacing human work opportunities.
For example, look at your phone and ask yourself how many apps you have. Most of them are free to use. Now ask yourself how many jobs disappeared due to those apps. You probably have your bank on your phone, right? You probably take one thousand photos and put them in the cloud, right?
For that to happen, many jobs had to disappear.
Any function that is predictable and routine will be a target for improving efficiency through automation. This automation will aggressively replace the work of highly rewarded professionals.
However, it will not be all bad. Remember, technology is made by humans, and innovation has never harmed the development of humanity- quite the contrary.
The truth is that many jobs will disappear, but new jobs will be created in an economy that will change substantially in the coming decades.
A smaller range of people will probably be needed to work in specialized productive roles, as robots will do the rest. But new opportunities will be created, well paid, and valued by the community.
In an economy that is gamified but highly robotized and digitized, modern societies will be more sensitive to the protection of nature and natural resources and the care of an increasingly aging society.
We will more often be looking at the stars and sending rockets to other planets. We will demand the extinction of hunger and injustice, creating communities and tokens that will have the power to reach all corners of the globe in a philanthropic torrent never seen before.
Like with any other technological disruption, the economy is being redesigned by those who are willing to change. The Baby Boomers are getting old; GenZ and GenY are those who are in charge now.
Combining GenZ and GenY youth and irreverence with the experience of Millennials and Baby Boomers, a new gamified economy is emerging.
We all need to be open-minded and embrace the new economic design that will bring individual sovereignty and abundance globally.
