Fear that artificial intelligence will take up both skilled & unskilled jobs: Raghuram Rajan
The former governor of RBI, Raghuram Rajan today expressed
concern of Artificial Intelligence taking up both unskilled and high skilled jobs.
He said that with advancement in robotics, machine learning and artificial
intelligence we will see not only unskilled jobs going away but also that of
skilled professionals like doctors. In his keynote address at #FUTURE Global
Digital Summit, he asked what jobs humans would be doing that are immune in
10-15 years? Such jobs would be the ones that require high creativity and
intelligence and that add lot of value.
He also added that India would have to embrace this
technology if it wants to become a leader and will have to shun away all fears
of job losses. The fear of man being replaced by machines has existed since
industrial revolution and will continue to do so.
He added that 200 years since the industrial revolution jobs
are still there and humans adapt to situation that machines cannot do. Because
of advancement in technology, there will be restructuring of every job which
will take away the routine aspect and leave only the creative aspects of the
job for humans. Another fear he highlighted was of people worrying about where
would income come from. He answered to it with Universal Basic Income. He
mentioned that the Indian government needs to do more for startups and provide
them an easier path to funding and incorporation.
One big lacunae in India according to Rajan is the lack of
risk financing because of which startups go elsewhere. He feels that we need to
ensure that our future companies are incorporated in India and provide them
finances to expand rapidly. India cannot miss out on AI and robotics
revolution. Another area where India needs to improve is skill building.
