Automation & the Death of the American Job

PALM BEACH, Fla. - April 18, 2014 - PRLog -- Dan Abbate, automation expert and Founder/CEO of Robotaton Corp, is set to launch his latest speaking tour on May 19, 2014. A leading proponent of automation in the American workplace, Abbate will be appearing at a variety of professional and civic associations throughout South Florida over the course of the summer and fall.

His current talk is entitled “Death of the American Job - The Future of Automation in Business.”  As technology continues to expand its autonomous functionality and becomes even more tightly integrated into society, this integration results in less labor inputs required to run the economy. Or said another way: in the not-too-distant future, there will be less for humans to do. Touching on the past, present and future of automation, Abbate focuses on what companies and individuals can do to prepare and adapt to this already-in-process change.

Abbate elaborates, “One of the questions I always get asked during the Q&A is ‘With all this automation and displacement of workers, what are we going to do with all the dummies?’  Everyone laughs when this comes up, but the point of it is pertinent. The value that human employees will have in the future is in jobs that utilize their creative and relationship-based skills. For companies and individuals, now is the time to examine how they fit into that value.”
