People who operate machines are evolving into AI systems trainers, while logistics workers are transitioning to fleet co-ordinators for mobile robots. The incoming robotics and AI revolution is set to transform many industries from bottom to top. But while it’s set to be a major driver of job evolution, that doesn’t only mean losses - it could also create new roles with more valuable and complex skillsets, and greater satisfaction. A new World Economic Forum report, Physical AI: Powering the New Age of Industrial Operations, outlines how human roles are transforming.
