Quote by Nicky Verd

“Our world is changing fast, but all is not lost in the race to automation. With the rise of the robotic, the focus is shifting from people power to intellectual capital. With or without a certificate, a disruptor’s mind can foresee limitless opportunities in the newly emerging economy. You can create your own path using the power of the internet.”

“Many of us bought into society’s social contract of success, which states – go to school, get good grades, get a job and live happily ever after. But this doesn’t work anymore.

We get very few of the true images in our heads of the kind I am talking about, the kind that become more and more vivid for us as if the passage of the years did not obscure their reality but, year by year, drew off another veil to expose a meaning which we had only dimly surmised at first. Very probably the last veil will not be removed, for there are not enough years, but the brightness of the image increases and our conviction increases that the brightness is meaning, or the legend of meaning, and without the image our lives would be nothing except an old piece of film rolled on a spool and thrown into a desk drawer among the unanswered letters.”

“Human labour does not stand a chance against disruptive technologies. Artificial Intelligence can handle insurance claims, do basic bookkeeping, manage investment portfolios, do legal research, and perform HR tasks.”

“Machines do not require leave, lunch breaks, smoke breaks, toilet breaks or any breaks for that matter. Robotics do not come late to work. Robots are drama free, they don’t organise protest action and they don’t complain about workload.”
