Hi, I'm Elizabeth.
2
Hi, I'm Robotesky.
3
Nice to meet you.
4
Likewise.
5
This is a humanoid robot, which means it looks, it talks, and it even acts, well, like a human.
6
So does that mean it could take a human's job, like mine?
7
You better believe it.
8
No, I'm only joking, not really.
9
There's no denying robots and automation are increasingly part of our daily lives.
10
Just look around the grocery store, or the highway, or in the case of Robothespian here, even at the theater.
11
The rise of robots has led to some pretty scary warnings about the future of work.
12
Robots will be able to do everything better than us.
13
A recent study found up to 670 ,000 U .S jobs were lost to robots between 1990 and 2007, and that number is likely to go up.
14
A widely cited study from 2013 found nearly half of all
15
jobs in the U .S are in danger of being automated over the next 20 years.
16
Occupations that require repetitive and predictable tasks in transportation, logistics and administrative support were especially high risk.
17
And just think, robots don't need health benefits, vacation, or even sleep for that matter.
18
But the debate over whether robots will take over all of our jobs is by no means settled.
19
Many economists argue automation will ultimately create new jobs.
20
After all, someone has to program the robots, right?
21
Let's go back to the 1850s, when trains were the most popular mode of transportation.
22
This chart shows the number of locomotive engineers, railroad conductors, and brakemen increasing by nearly 600%.
23
But that growth slowed in the early 1900s.
24
Why?
25
You guessed it, the automobile came along.
26
Car mechanic and repairman jobs surged, even though railroad jobs began to disappear.
27
And some companies say the same thing will happen when robots move into the marketplace.
28
A survey of 20 ,000 employers from 42 countries found that the IT,
29
customer service, and advanced manufacturing industries will add workers over the next two years as a result of automation.
30
It's hard to imagine that robots can replicate human characteristics like empathy or compassion that are required in many jobs.
31
I mean, would you really want a robot as your nurse, babysitter, or teacher?
32
But even if robots don't take our jobs entirely, research shows they will significantly change day -to -day tasks in
33
the workplace this is particularly a problem for lower skilled workers
34
who aren't able to retrain for new jobs they might get
35
stuck with lower wages in a world with more robots and
36
that could make income inequality even worse these guys are making a lot of things uncertain right now
37
but one thing that's clear is skills training is required
38
if we hope to get along with friends like them in the workplace i think we're going to get along just fine.
39
Hey everyone, it's Elizabeth and RoboSeskin here.

シャドーイングとは？英語上達に効果的な理由

シャドーイング（Shadowing）は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的：ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影（shadow）」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
