Digitization is increasingly shaping the world of work. While computerisation has been historically confined to routine tasks
involving explicit rule-based activities, algorithms for big data are now rapidly entering domains reliant upon pattern recognition
and can readily substitute for labour in a wide range of non-routine cognitive tasks.
Advanced robots are gaining enhanced senses
and dexterity, allowing them to perform a broader scope of manual tasks.
This will change the nature of work across industries and
occupations.
