Here's the top 20 jobs in danger of being replaced by robots in the next 20 years

Here's the top 20 jobs in danger of being replaced by robots in the next 20 years
Will a robot someday steal your job?

Day by day, the machines are getting smarter and more efficient than people. Employers find it more practical to use them because their basic AI (artificial intelligence) is substantially doing tasks that a person used to do.

A computer program usually does the job faster, more accurately, for less money, and without any health insurance costs. They don't charge for overtime nor ask for paid leaves.

A recent Oxford University study compared the tasks of nearly a thousand jobs to the predicted future ability of robotic technologies, specifically in the fields of "Machine Learning" and "Machine Robotics".

Using a methodology called Gaussian process, the Oxford researchers measured the "probability of computerization" of various professions and found out that robots have the potential to substitute for human brains and hands.

Administrative, clerical and production workers might be the first to be replaced by robots in the next 10 to 20 years, the study added.


Here are the top 20 jobs most likely to be replaced by robots:

20. Electrical and electronic equipment assemblers
19. Postal service workers
18. Jewelers and precious stone and metal workers
17. Restaurant cooks
16. Grinding and polishing workers
15. Cashiers
14. Bookkeepers
13. Legal secretaries
12. Fashion models
11. Drivers
10. Credit analysts
9. Milling and planing machine setters, operators, and tenders
8. Packaging and filling-machine operators and tenders
7. Procurement clerks
6. Umpires and referees
5. Tellers
4. Loan officers
3. Timing-device assemblers and adjusters
2. Tax preparers
1. Telemarketers

Runner-ups will be Insurance Appraisers for Auto Damage, Order Clerks, Brokerage Clerks, Insurance Claims and Policy Processing Clerks, Data Entry Keyers, Library Technicians, New Accounts Clerks, Photographic Process Workers and Processing Machine Operators, Cargo and Freight Agents, Watch Repairers, Insurance Underwriters, Mathematical Technicians, Sewers, Hand and Title Examiners, Abstractors, and Searchers.

What the LTO says about changing mag wheels, rims and tires of your car, motorcycle

The new LTO PMVIC, or the Land Transportation Office - Private Motor Vehicle Inspection Centers, has started operations in some parts of the country for inspections of cars and motorcycles due for registration renewal. Dubbed as MVIS (Motor Vehicle Inspection System), it aims to test the roadworthiness of private and commercial vehicles prior to their registration. This also includes the checking of modifications, upgrades and accessories that have been installed on your vehicles - whether factory or aftermarket. If they don't meet LTO standards, you fail the test. Failing the MVIS test means you have to retake the inspection and worse, you can't register your vehicle any more. For purposes of discussion, I chose to talk about wheels and tires because they are the most frequently modified parts of our cars and motorcycles. Now comes the question: Is it considered illegal to replace your wheels with aftermarket mag wheels? Can those u...

Supreme Court dismisses petitions, gives green light to MMDA’s NCAP

The Supreme Court (SC) has dismissed the consolidated petitions challenging the validity of No Contact Apprehension Program (NCAP) in Metro Manila. In a statement on Thursday, the high court said the issues raised in the suit have since become moot due to the adoption of a new and uniform traffic enforcement framework under the Metro Manila Traffic Code of 2023 (MMTC 2023). It added the petitions were also rejected for lack of legal standing on the part of the petitioners, who failed to exhaust other administrative remedies before going to court and disregarded the hierarchy of courts as well as the rule on forum-shopping. The decision, written by Associate Justice Rodil Zalameda, dismissed the petitions filed by Kilusan sa Pagbabago ng Industriya ng Transportasyon and others, which sought to declare unconstitutional ordinances of Muntinlupa City, Parañaque City, Quezon City, Valenzuela City, and the City of Manila implementing Metro M...
