How is AI going to affect blue-collar workers?

AI is going to bring out great efficiencies and a lot of Wow stuff,A McKinsey report states that half of today’s workplace activities could be automated by 2055, or in more extreme scenarios, up to 20 years earlier. In contrast, a 2017 Gartner report predicts that AI will create 500,000 more jobs than it will displace over the next three years, creating a host of employment opportunities for medium-to high-skilled workers. So how will AI affect the blue-collar workers? Don’t you think blue-collar workers need to gain new skills to live and contribute effectively in a fully alive AI environment? For this we believe that we need to make a start by providing them with basic linguistic & life skills so that they can learn how to learn anything on their own so that they can keep up with the ever-changing environment.
