Recently, Zhang Yaqin, a foreign academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering and the founding dean of the Intelligent Industry Research Institute (AIR) of Tsinghua University, predicted that:In the next 10 years, the number of robots will exceed the number of humans, replacing some of human jobs. Human beings will only need to work two days a week in the future, and wages will not decrease or even increase.Zhang Yaqin predicts that by 2035, the number of robots will exceed that of humans, that is, more than 7 billion or 8 billion.
"I am optimistic that in 10 years' time we will work two days a week, the salary will not be reduced, (even) will be higher, and our life will be better and more leisurely."he said.
Zhang Yaqin believes that the future will definitely be an era where AI (artificial intelligence) and HI (human intelligence) coexist.AI will amplify human IQ, human IQ will increase, and the IQ of the entire society will also increase significantly.
"Just like when the steam engine came out and we got rid of the constraints on physical strength, now we get rid of the constraints on intelligence. "
He added that repeatable physical and mental activities will be replaced by AI, first by industrial robots, then by social robots, and then by home robots. They will replace jobs and create many new jobs.
Some things are human choices, just like the advent of video conferencing 30 years ago. At that time, everyone felt that there was no need for face-to-face meetings or business trips. There were fewer and fewer planes, but now there are more and more.
