In the age of artificial intelligence, technology has given us many online tools, apps, and robots to help us educate our children. But, as parents know, nothing beats one-on-one interaction between a parent and a child. Our children learn most effectively by social means. With the influx of technology, there's one inherent problem in our current education system that seems to be amplified: flexibility. Our children never had the "flexibility" of education that can provide them with a tailored experience to fulfill their potential.

The fourth industrial revolution stands out from its predecessors in a critical way: rather than making it easier for humans to use their surroundings more effectively for their own benefit, technology is displacing humans in the workplace. The question is who will benefit now. Automated or otherwise technology-enabled services can increase profit margins for companies, while representing for users cheaper, more convenient or more reliable options than those produced exclusively by humans. But, of course, this comes at a high cost for the humans who previously filled those roles. People all over the world have embraced ride-sharing and transport services such as Uber, to the detriment of traditional taxi drivers. In stock trading, 79 per cent of market transactions are now performed by software, according to Frank Zhang of the Yale School of Management, reflecting the hope that machines will be able to identify patterns more effectively than a human could – a hope that may have contributed to the recent stock market correction.
