Frm self-driving cars t care-bts（care+rbts） fr elderly peple, rapid develpment in technlgy has lng represented a pssible threat t many jbs nrmally perfrmed by peple. But experts nw believe that almst 50 percent f ccupatins existing tday will be cmpletely unnecessary by 2025 as artificial intelligence cntinues t change businesses.

“Technlgy will cntinue t affect jbs, but mre jbs seem likely t be created. Althugh there have always been unemplyed peple, when we reached a few billin peple there were billins f jbs. There is n shrtage f things that need t be dne and that will nt change,” Micrsft’s Jnathan Grudin tld researchers.
