I believe that society needs to face this question before its upon us: If machines can do almost any work humans can do, what will humans do?“The question I want to put forward is, Does the technology we are developing finally benefit mankind？”Prof Vardi, said existing robotic and artificial intelligence (AI) technologies were already getting rid of a growing number of middleclass jobs and that pace of advancement in the field is increasing. But Prof Vardi is not sure that a workforce of humanlike robots will be good for mankind.“A typical answer is that if machines will do all our work, we will be free to pursue leisure activities,” he said.“I do not find this a promising future, as I do not find the idea of leisureonly life appealing. I believe that work is essential to human wellbeing. ”“Humanity is about to face perhaps its greatest challenge ever, which is finding meaning in life. ” “We need to rise to the occasion and meet this challenge before human labor becomes out of date.”“Whats different this time is computer scientists are working on building machines that can do everything we can do, only better. If machines can do all the work or even 50 percent of the jobs that we used to do, what will people do？”24What does Professor Moshe Vardi say about future human jobs?AThey will be more challenging.
