Technologies not only make our lives easier but also change them beyond recognition. Professions are transforming faster than anything else — and over the last few decades, humanity seems to have grown tired of fearing competition from machines. However, now, in light of the coronavirus, we stand on the threshold of unprecedented labor automation — a future without work is already arriving. Will technology completely replace us? What will the world be like where people lose their earnings and, possibly, the meaning of life? Or are all these fears unfounded, and machines will simply help us so that we can spend more time with family and on self-development? The book by the English economist and former advisor to the British government, Daniel Susskind, is a detailed guide to the new economic reality and the debunking of myths about "replacing humans with robots." To demonstrate the seriousness of the author's assumptions about technological unemployment, we translated this book with Yandex.Translate and left some fragments of the text unedited, so that everyone could see the incredible capabilities of self-learning algorithms and decide for themselves whether they are our friends or foes.
