有一件矛盾的事情，你可能从未听过：过去一个世纪以来，尽管机械的发明取代了我们很多的工作，但美国成年人的劳工就业比率在过去125年来却不断攀升。为什么我们的劳工没有过剩且技术没有被淘汰呢？在这场有关于未来工作的谈话中，经济学家大卫．奥图（David Autor）为我们解答了为什么仍有那么多的工作岗位，并给出了一个令人惊讶又充满希望的答案。

机器会取代我们的工作吗？

Despite a century of inventions built to replace human labor, the share of adults working in the United States is higher now than it was 125 years ago. When ATMs arrived, the number of bank tellers actually doubled, as automation shifted their roles toward problem-solving and customer service. This pattern repeats across industries: as technology handles routine tasks, new needs and desires emerge, fueling demand for human skills. The future of work depends not on machines, but on our creativity, our institutions, and the choices we make as a society.
