#AI will be faster & more impactful than both the #industrialrevolution & the internet #informationrevolution affecting jobs at all levels. The #AIRevolution will lead to massive job losses & SIGNIFICANTLY disrupt the #labor market more than either due to the automation of a wide range of tasks.
The #IndustrialRevolution moved jobs from agrarian & artisanal work to factory-based labor. For instance, the textile industry saw a shift from home-based production to mechanized factories exploiting women & children who worked long hours for low wages. #NationalGeographicSociety
