大衛．奧圖: 自動化即將讓我們失業嗎？

自動化即將讓我們失業嗎？

有一件矛盾的事情，你可能從未聽過：過去一個世紀以來，儘管機械的發明，取代了我們很多的工作，但美國成年人的勞工就業比率在過去 125 年來卻不斷攀升。為什麼我們的勞工沒有過剩且技術沒有被淘汰呢？在這場有關於未來工作的談話中，經濟學家大衛．奧圖 (David Autor) 向我們解答為什麼仍有那麼多的工作岡位，並給出了一個令人驚訝又充滿希望的答案。

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.
