Singapore announced a three month-trial of on-demand autonomous bus services at two locations beginning Monday ( Jan 25 ) as part of Singapore’s efforts to make such vehicles commercially viable.
It is evident that autonomous robots are making their way into the manufacturing, service , security, logistics industries to increase productivity and efficiency. It is viewed as an alternative solution to ease labour supply issues.
Are robots going to take over jobs? With the advancement of innovative technologies such as Artificial Intelligence (AI) , Machine Learning (ML) and robotics, is the question a valid one?
We are in the midst of Industrial 4.0 where the utilisation of computers and automation is further enhanced with smart and autonomous systems.
Job Redesign is a useful tool to shape the changing roles in work of the future. It can help organisations to thrive on more effectively. In addition, it helps our aging workforce to remain gainfully employed and continue to contribute to the economy. Machines can be used to minimise strenuous tasks and AI can take on the repetitive and mundane tasks.
I am delighted with my appointment as a pre-approved Job Redesign Consultant as part of the authority’s productivity solutions. Looking forward to work with SMEs in the new year! Happy Lunar Lunar to one and all.
