如何防止机器人抢走你的饭碗

According to MIT Economist David Autor, “By the late 19th century … many Americans recognized that farm employment was declining, industry was rising and their children would need additional education to earn a living.” The World Bank notes that between 1900 and 1940, the percentage of 14- to 17-year-olds enrolled in high school in the U.S. increased from 10% to 75%. As a result, millions of workers left farms and were able to obtain higher-paying jobs as the economy matured.

麻省理工学院（MIT）经济学家大卫o奥特指出：“到19世纪末……很多美国人意识到，农业的就业率正在下降，工业就业率正在上升。而他们的孩子需要接受额外的教育才能够养家糊口。”世界银行也指出，在1900到1940年之间，美国14至17岁青少年的高中入学率从10%上升到75%。因此，随着经济的成熟，数百万劳动者离开农场后，能够获得薪水更高的工作。

But this time, we don’t need more schools, we need different schools. Schools will need to place a greater focus on skills that will enable the next generation to benefit from the upcoming technological wave instead of merely getting swept aside. In particular, robots are still horrible communicators and problem solvers. So schools should evolve to emphasize critical thinking and social skills. It is also highly unlikely that during the next couple decades robots will learn how to design and manage themselves, so schools should stress creativity and management skills.
