How Technology Will Create These 7 Jobs In The Future

They might apply to one of these futuristic job ads one day. Fifteen years ago, people would have looked at you sideways if you told them you were a data scientist, driverless car engineer, or drone operator. It's hard to believe, but in 2006 those industries didn't really exist. By 2030, automation is expected to hit a midpoint, "something like 16 percent of occupations would have been automated--and there would be impact and dislocation as a result of these technologies." Artificial Intelligence, spatial computing (augmented and virtual reality), brain-computer interfaces, are all set to substitute labor or complement it in some way.
