Billionaire Mark Cuban: The Rise of Technology Will Cause a Lot of Unemployment
Billionaire Mark Cuban made an appearance today in New York City's Central Park at the second annual "OZY Fest", and he didn't disappoint. Naturally, the conversation first gravitated towards President Trump, with moderator Carlos Watson leading a panel that also included Republican presidential candidate Jeb Bush and comedian Samantha Bee. Watson first asked if any of the panelists would join President Trump's cabinet. Cuban proclaimed that he wouldn't join Trump's cabinet, but he would meet with the President to converse about the state of our nation. When it was Jeb Bush's turn, the former governor simply replied: "Let's move onto something [more] fun." Watson then shifted gears to the hot-button topic of police brutality. "I think every city is different," Cuban responded when asked if our police system nationwide is broken.
Jeb Bush warns robots taking US jobs is not science fiction
Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush said Sunday that people "should be marching in the streets" to demand changes to "antiquated" education systems that aren't preparing students to be competitive in the job market against the robots of the future. "The looming challenge of automation and artificial intelligence and the rapid advancement of technology brings great benefits but also creates huge challenges," Bush told radio host John Catsimatidis on AM 970 in New York. The threat of a number of jobs being lost to automation is "real," he said. "This is not something that's science fiction. This is happening as we speak. And yet we still have this big skills gap."
