Robots Taking Over Business & Workplace Tasks

Traditional Skills Becoming obsolete
Investigative reporter Don Bartlett recently warned about the public’s lack of awareness about robotics in the workplace during his appearance on C-SPAN.

Although I knew about robot controlled vacuum cleaners & the growing use of robots in factories, I have to admit I had no idea how widespread the technology had become until several days ago when 60 minutes ran a segment on the subject.

The changes affect traditional workers, white and blue collar, and provide potential and pitfalls for aspiring and established entrepreneurs.

Warning: For several seconds, the 13 + minute video has a graphic glimpse inside a surgical operating room.
