About this listen

In this episode, we explore Dr. Alok Aggarwal’s book "The Fourth Industrial Revolution and 100 Years of AI" to gain insights into the transformation of the global job market by 2050, driven by AI, robotics, and climate change. While automation threatens to displace approximately 395 million jobs globally, the rise of industries in data science, AI, and renewable energy will create over 130 million new opportunities. The episode delves into the profound impact of climate change, with investments in green industries potentially generating millions of jobs, but also warns of the devastating consequences of inaction. We discuss how adaptation through STEM education, upskilling, and reskilling will be critical to navigating this evolving landscape.

Will the job market of 2050 be a place of innovation and opportunity, or will automation and climate change create unprecedented challenges? Tune in to find out how we can prepare for the workforce of tomorrow!
