5 professions that will no longer exist 2050
The vertijinoso advance of the technologies in the last 15 years has been responsible for numerous social changes and, of course, also professionals. While some professions and certain trades have been maintained and adapted generating new expectations for the future, others have seen how the train of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) has passed so fast that it has derailed them.
Based on this reality, studies are already emerging that reveal that there are professions in danger of extinction due to the irruption of the Internet, smartphones and other devices that make our lives easier. Currently, technological advances are already able to replace certain jobs and are destined to end up disappearing over time as happened with the sereno, with the telegraph operator or with the milkman.
Technological substitutes and professionals
There are only 30 years left to live this new professional reality, which is being shown to the students of Singular University, an academic institution in Silicon Valley whose purpose is to gather, educate and inspire a group of leaders who strive to understand and facilitate the development exponential of technologies and promote, apply, guide and guide these tools to solve the great challenges of humanity driven by NASA and Google among other organizations.
Gonzalo Ruiz, CEO of the training portal of Courses.com, after passing through this university ensures that "we are convinced that in 2050 no longer have a place in the labor market manual jobs likely to be replaced by a machine or a computer but, in addition, the intermediate positions that do not give a sufficient added value will be extinguished ".
5 professions that will become extinct by 2050
Some of these 5 professions, if they are maintained in some cases, will appeal to differential attention, but they have many ballots to go down in history.
Travel agent: Technology has been incorporated into the tourism industry as a double-edged sword. On the one hand, the direct booking by the user of flights and hotels through the search engines of the new Internet companies have collapsed the business causing the offices to have to close. Without the traditional agencies, travel agents will go down in history little by little. In 2050 it is estimated that there will be no trace of them.
Bank cashier: We are increasingly used to making bank transfers, payments and balance inquiries through the Internet. The banks are directing their clients towards online banking to do their paperwork via the Internet. In the last 5 years we have witnessed the closing of many bank branches and it is expected that in 30 years everything will be automatic in the banks or will be managed via Internet.
Teleoperator: talking to a machine is becoming more common when we call large companies. Speech recognition technology improves rapidly and advances in Artificial Intelligence will lead telemarketers to disappear in three decades.
Supermarket cashier: Some large supermarkets and supermarkets are already implementing automatic collection systems, at the moment for quick purchases, with three or five terminals. But in a short time, by 2050 it is possible that supermarket cashiers are just a memory.
Train driver: the automatic driving of the trains will be a reality in 2050. The piloting of the trains, like the one that now works in the small trains of transhipment of certain airports, tends to extend. In fact, at the moment, the work of machinist is still alive more than anything for safety issues.
