When children who were growing up in the mid-80s and 90s were asked what the future would look like - the most common response was "a world with flying cars"- all thanks to Doc Brown from the sci-fi film Back to the Future. Surprisingly, we are actually very near to that reality.
Today, there are humans creating drones, self-driving cars, 3D printing machines. These are jobs that were perceived as "futuristic jobs" two or three decades ago. Khaleej Times asked kids of today (children from an era where we are already developing bullet-like trains, flying cars, self-driving cars, 3D printed homes, cloned sheep and monkeys) what they think futuristic jobs would look like?
Lakshaki Joshi, 9, believes future jobs will create a lot of ease and comfort for humans. "In the future, people will be able to reach stars in faraway galaxies using their personal spaceships. Pet trainers can train pets to do productive things like answer the phone or clean up themselves," she said. "Robots will be very advanced, and can behave and talk like real human beings, so they can do normal jobs. In the future, every job will be mostly done by robots. "
Another student Jaelyne Tauro insists that we must prepare to co-exist with robots in order to have a steady future. "By the next decade, artificial intelligence will have some impact on the society, and even jobs. Some jobs may still require human skill, while humans and robots will work side by side and other will be done easily by robots. While robots do take up some jobs, they give us back even more jobs due to technological advancements. We must learn to co-exist with robots for our future benefit in the competitive world that awaits us," Tauro said.
Another student, Harsh Kinthada, believes futuristic jobs will be much "less stressful" for humans. "There are a lot of jobs that kids prefer according to their interests. The future jobs are definitely life changing, you would get flabbergasted. If you love 3D-Printing, you would be excited to learn more about 3D-printed clothes designing. Also, you can earn more money and enjoy doing your work, instead of stressing out," he said.
