Supercomputer Watson from IBM is already giving medical advice for cancer treatment. On average his human counterparts are familiar with approximately 8 to 10 different cancer treatments. But today there are approximately 70 others practiced with another 200 in the research, clinical trial stages or just published in a scientific journal. For cancer patients this could make a significant difference in the battle between life and death. IBM Watson can deal with all this. A doctor possibly can’t.

Post-industrial society

The economy undergoes a transition from the production of goods to the provision of services.

Knowledge becomes a valued form of capital, see human capital.

Producing ideas is the main way to grow the economy.

Globalization & automation leads to a decline in the prevalence and value of blue-collar & manual labour and a rise in the prevalence and value of professional workers (e.g. scientists, creative-industry professionals, and IT professionals)

No qualification

Many jobs that existed in the past have vanished… or nearly vanished.

Labour markets change…

Assembly jobs – done in china

Typists – we do our own

Telephonists – automated out….

… and so on.

But, they are mainly jobs done by people with low levels of qualifications.

Graduates will need qualifications / skills to compete in the labour market.

Declining Occupations

The pace of change today remains fast.

The fastest growing occupations are those that need Level 4 and Level 3 qualifications.
