Snicklink predicted that jobs involving screen activities would become irrelevant within the next 18 months with about an 85 percent probability. Occupations with direct human contact, in his estimation, would still exist for a few more years with the same probability; he made a sexual joke about this. For jobs in between, he expected varying developments, but often a loss or a strong reduction. Craft occupations would, in his estimation, last somewhat longer, but would mostly become irrelevant within seven to eight years at the latest – except for highly specialized manual tasks. The German auto industry would soon be "dead as a mouse"; he believes that studying and obtaining a driver's license are also a complete waste of time. Snicklink also wrote that existence would no longer depend on monetizable performance in the future – regardless of who governed the country. Whether this development is good or bad, he believes, remains to be seen. #Zukunft #Arbeitsplatz #Technologie (translated)
