The innovation economy is the driver for the development of the Fourth
Industrial Revolution and consequently, there is a growing focus on
innovation in general and technological innovation in particular. In
this context, there is much to suggest that it is the triple impact of
artificial intelligence, big data and 5G- and 6G networks that will go
beyond the limits of existing competence. This book is about the new
competence that is emerging in the wake of artificial intelligence and
intelligent robots. It explains how these two technologies are
completely fundamental to what is known as the Fourth Industrial
Revolution. The author argues that artificial intelligence will
promote automation, which will reduce wages rather than increase
unemployment statistics. The book posits that when the utility value
of technology and the rate of dissemination of technology is high,
people who have the necessary competence will both future-proof their
jobs in the labour market and also be among the highest-paid workers
in the new economy that is emerging from the innovation economy.
Further, by making education more compatible with new technology will
enable graduates to access more secure and better paid jobs, and all
behavioural fields related to new technology will flourish because
they can be used in many contexts to steer people’s behaviour in
certain directions through the integration of big data and artificial
intelligence. The book employs the following scholarly methods:
conceptual generalization, scenario-based thinking and historical
economic methodology, thus it will be of particular benefit to
academic scholars, researchers and graduate students who are concerned
with the impact of the fourth industrial revolution on the labour
market.
