1
So I've got some good and bad news
2
and since we're in England we'll start with the good news because we always need to end with the bad news.
3
The good news from your point of view and of course I'm arguing
4
that we should be scared but there's one thing we shouldn't be scared of.
5
We don't need to fear that in 20 or 30
6
or even 50 years we will become as human beings indistinguishable
7
from computers in other words in 50 years we could all
8
be here it could be like a science fiction movie
9
and we won't know whether you're sitting next to a computer
10
or not so that's the good news you don't have to worry about singularity
11
but that doesn't mean we should not be fearful of robots
12
that doesn't mean that we have a lot to be scared about just
13
because we're not about to become indistinguishable from robots doesn't mean they're about to take away our livelihood
14
and I'm guessing that many of you are lawyers
15
or doctors journalists people trained in a field you probably went
16
to university you spent years acquiring your intelligence your skill your intellect
17
and you sell
18
that skill as a teacher as a doctor as an accountant
19
as a lawyer your value in the economy is based on that expertise
20
and it is you I'm afraid who have the most to fear from this great revolution the digital revolution
21
which one set of economists call our second machine age
22
because this is as profound as earth shaking as culturally socially
23
and above all else economically profound as the first Industrial Revolution of the 19th century.
24
What we're on the brink of is a world of increasingly intense, sophisticated, artificial intelligence.
25
In Silicon Valley, where I'm from, we call it the machine learning revolution.
26
It's the revolution of algorithms, not the traditional science fiction, old -fashioned HG Wells notion,
27
Doctor Who, of the robot trundling along the street, the Dalek get
28
that image out of your mind think of the algorithm think
29
of the self -driving car think of Google think of these incredible new technologies
30
which are coming out of Silicon Valley
31
which are essentially replacing human labor skilled human labor
32
because here's the paradox it's really hard for computers to replicate
33
what seems to us to be simple tasks simple tasks like
34
doing the garden the washing up cooking cutting someone's hair
35
but on the other hand
36
and here is the dark scary horrific element to the new
37
world we're about to enter it's not difficult to do what seems to us at least to be the difficult things.
38
The bad news, and this is really bad news for most of you, and especially for your kids because they are trying to follow in your footsteps,
39
is that this world is about to be swept away by the digital revolution.
40
Machines will learn how to diagnose diseases.
41
What does that say for all doctors around the world?
42
We already have software now that grades essays.
43
What becomes of school teachers, what becomes of university teachers.
44
Two researchers at Oxford University have argued
45
that over the next 10 years 47 % of our jobs will become irrelevant
46
and those 47 % I'm afraid for you guys are your kind of jobs.
47
And it's not just skilled labor, it's not just the professional class, it's not just those people who have been fortunate
48
or unfortunate enough to go to university we have a large
49
audience a television audience from the developing world these are people
50
who are embracing education who see it as a way out
51
of poverty i'm afraid the news is really troubling for them
52
because they missed the bus development which was always taken for granted no longer will happen.
53
And we have these increasing inequalities in Silicon Valley because all the wealth is going to the platform companies.
54
All the wealth is going to companies like Amazon and Google
55
and the other companies that have harnessed this technology for their own benefit.
56
What we're seeing is a hollowing out of the middle class,
57
a hollowing out of the kind of jobs that you guys have depended on and a replacement by the algorithm,
58
by the machine, and by a tiny group of people who own and control that machine.
59
That's the reason, I'm afraid, why you should be afraid, very afraid.
60
Thank you.
61
Thank you very much.
62
So our second speaker is speaking against the motion, Walter Isaacson.
63
And Walter became famous for his internationally acclaimed book on the life of Steve Jobs,
64
and he gained unprecedented access to Steve Jobs in the last months of his life.
65
He's also president and CEO of the Aspen Institute in Washington
66
and a former chairman and CEO of CNN and the managing editor of Time magazine.
67
How do you fit it all in?
68
Thank you for making the time for us today.
69
Your time starts when you get to the lectern.
70
Thank you.
71
Thank you very much to have good news for you
72
and good news the good news is you don't have to be afraid
73
and the other piece of good news is there's no bad
74
news in this the future is really going to be cool since my
75
since my distinguished opponent mr keen started with the industrial revolution and said
76
that this new revolution would be as disruptive as the industrial revolution let me begin by reminding you
77
that the industrial revolution wasn't all that bad
78
and at the end of it we had more jobs not
79
fewer jobs technology can indeed be disruptive it can disrupt certain jobs as mr keen has said
80
but it always has and i submit always will produce more jobs because it produces more wealth more personal income,
81
more per capita wealth, and thus more things that we can make and buy.
82
Every succeeding generation has had a new wave of worry, dire warnings that jobs are being threatened.
83
But in each one of these cases, they turned out to be wrong.
84
I was at Time magazine i went back to look 50
85
years ago 50 years ago to this date almost time magazine did a cover
86
just like this just like the uh line
87
that we're looking at it said the robots are coming automation
88
will take your job it quoted a rather famous um economic historian robert holborn
89
or most of you have heard of him he says the new technology is threatening a whole new group of skills.
90
Sounded just like Mr. Keene.
91
He said the calculating, the remembering, the comparing, the okaying skills,
92
the preserve of the office worker will go away and machines will invade society to make that type of human labor redundant.
93
Well guess what?
94
It's been 50 years and since then, soon after he wrote that, we had the greatest leaps of technology you can imagine.
95
The The internet, the personal computer, and the microprocessor all come into play, but nobody has been rendered redundant.
96
There's more jobs and more types of jobs now than there were 50 years ago.
97
As Marc Andreassen, the person who invented the web browser,
98
said, just as most of us today have jobs that weren't invented 100 years ago, the same will be true 100 years from now.
99
Let me give some examples.
100
There's the app economy.
101
It began in 2008
102
when Steve Jobs was convinced by other members of his management
103
team to allow outsiders to create apps for the iPhone and then the iPad.
104
The app store alone since then has created 627 ,000 jobs.
105
The app economy last year was $100 billion, far surpassing the film industry.
106
This is an industry that did not exist seven years ago.
107
Other advances in technology have helped facilitate new forms of work, such as the sharing economy, where people both here, New York,
108
New Orleans, can drive cars, be part of Uber, be part of Airbnb, be part of Lyft.
109
Likewise, online marketplaces such as Amazon and eBay have enabled the rise of artisans,
110
makers, the type of people that existed in the pre -industrial age, people who had creative instincts and then could have connections to customers around the world.
111
If you create a book or a song now, you have new ways to publish, as Pippa did with her own book, new ways to distribute.
112
If you dream up a new specialty, this world allows you to find customers and provide a service,
113
just as if you were an artisan or a service maker in the pre -industrial revolution.
114
It even helps long -established companies find markets all over the globe.
115
There's a more fundamental shift going on in the economy that's also good.
116
We're creating an on -demand or on -tap economy.
117
If you need a housekeeper or a handyman, you don't have to go to a particular firm to get it.
118
It can be done on tap.
119
If new technologies reduce the total number of jobs, we'd all be out of work now.
120
And I doubt that Mr. Keene, nor I, nor you, can guess what wondrous jobs technology will bring to our great -grandchildren.
121
Thank you.
122
Thank you very much indeed, Walter.
123
Our second speaker for the motion is economist George Magnus.
124
After a long career in finance in the City of London, George has turned to writing, and he's written The Age of Aging,
125
a study of how demographics are changing the world, economy, and social systems.
126
So, George, please make your way to the lectern and tell us what you think.
127
Thank you very much.
128
So, we're going to talk economics now, okay?
129
Not populism.
130
So what I'd like to put to you this evening is
131
that these digital and robotic technologies constitute a very powerful economic threat to our livelihoods because of its effect on jobs,
132
on income distribution, and because they demand that we focus on coping mechanisms that we do not yet have.
133
now our opponents in this debate
134
and you've already heard the first will try to convince you
135
that because mankind has always adapted to new technologies historically we shouldn't fear the robotic revolution
136
but this time as they say it really is different
137
and I'm going to tell you why
138
so just over 200 years ago 64 men went on trial
139
in York these Luddites they went on a rampage They burned mills and machinery and so on, but their campaign, as we know, was myopic because the Industrial Revolution,
140
or the first Industrial Revolution, did leave us all better off.
141
What we did is we harnessed power, and that exposed the limits of human brawn.
142
But it was also complementary to human endeavour.
143
This is the key point.
144
It allowed us to blend men and machines in ways which boosted employment,
145
growth, income, and sustained a rising and prosperous middle class.
146
The modern technological revolution is different.
147
It's exposing the limits not of human brawn, but of human brain.
148
And instead of being complementary, modern technology is displacing us.
149
Capital is being substituted more and more for labour, threatening jobs, living standards and, as we know from contemporary political debate,
150
the fabric of the middle class.
151
Not all jobs, of course, are at risk, as you've already heard.
152
Machines are not sufficiently dexterous to do all kinds of manual work
153
and lots of human cognitive and judgmental skills have not been replicated by machines and may not.
154
But they've already been doing routine -based or rule -based jobs on the factory floor and in offices for some time.
155
Since 2010, the number of low -paying and high -paying jobs has gone up, but the number of middle -level jobs,
156
middle -wage -paying jobs, has stagnated or dropped in a pattern
157
that is replicated across the whole of Europe in the United States and indeed in some emerging countries, notably in China and India.
158
Successful capitalism needs us to be fully engaged, not just as gadgets savoring consumers, which we all are, but also as producers.
159
In other words, we need to have stable, productive, high levels of employment, which is what robotics is undermining.
160
And because capitalism rewards scarcity, and because the robotics revolution is generating productivity gains that are benefiting a limited number of people,
161
The principal rewards of modern technology are accruing to the owners of capital, not the owners of labor in the main.
162
Think about the three biggest firms in Silicon Valley.
163
They have 137 ,000 people, and these three companies have a market capitalization, in other words,
164
they're worth $1 .2 trillion dollars now just cast your mind
165
back 25 years to 1990 the three biggest companies in detroit had 10 times as many workers 1 .2 million
166
and their combined market value was a mere $36 billion.
167
This fundamental change in the relationship between capital
168
and labor is also illustrated by what we see in lots
169
of surveys about the rising share of profits in national income and the declining share of wages.
170
Because as economic inequality rises, so political inequality rises.
171
And those that benefit from more political power obviously seek changes
172
which further their own economic advantage
173
and you could easily end up without coping mechanisms at a very kind of dystopian political future.
174
I would remind you of the quip from Lord Keynes the famous British economist who quipped
175
that in the long run we're all dead by which he meant
176
that the economists focus on the long -run equilibrium was a waste of time because economic circumstances affect us now next year,
177
in the next few years, not at some vague point in the unmeasurable future.
178
And that's really what is important and brings me to my final point, which is that we need to think about this really seriously and try to develop coping mechanisms.
179
There could be many.
180
Better education, better training, improved access to capital, job protection schemes for certain occupations,
181
high minimum wage, direct transfers, labor -intensive construction, taxation of capital to help displaced workers and so on.
182
I'm not commending, ladies and gentlemen, any particular coping mechanism to you tonight,
183
merely pointing out that we have few and need many as the robotics revolution evolves.

Gölgeleme Tekniği Nedir?
Gölgeleme, başlangıçta profesyonel tercüman eğitimi için geliştirilen ve çok dilli Dr. Alexander Arguelles tarafından popüler hale getirilen, bilim destekli bir dil öğrenme tekniğidir. Yöntem basit ama güçlüdür: ana dili İngilizce olan bir sesi dinler ve hemen yüksek sesle tekrar edersiniz — konuşmacıyı 1-2 saniye gecikmeyle takip eden bir gölge gibi. Pasif dinleme veya dilbilgisi alıştırmalarının aksine, gölgeleme beyninizi ve ağız kaslarınızı gerçek konuşma kalıplarını eşzamanlı olarak işlemeye ve yeniden üretmeye zorlar. Araştırmalar, telaffuz doğruluğu, tonlama, ritim, bağlı konuşma, dinleme anlama ve konuşma akıcılığını önemli ölçüde geliştirdiğini göstermektedir — bu da onu IELTS Konuşma hazırlığı ve gerçek dünya İngilizce iletişimi için en etkili yöntemlerden biri yapar.
