Will Robots Take My Job? This app is named after a question more and more of us are asking, at least passingly. This web-based app assigns a percentage score and a rating to the likelihood of robots taking over your position. It provides a little extra information, too, like the number of current employees (estimated) who will eventually be affected by the growth of automation technology.

Heavy In Impact, Light On Fact

The app is easy as anything to use: you type in a job title (or a single word that roughly matches it), get a list of suggestions, and once you click the exact job you're thinking of, you get an estimate of how likely you, as an individual in the US with that job, are likely to be replaced. Obviously this has a few flaws: if you're not from the US, the single report which the website pulls from may not apply to you at all. And there's always a risk of flaws in the report itself affecting the data on Will Robots Take My Job?.

Well, Will They?

Basically, there's no reason not to mess around with Will Robots Take My Job? Even if you're short on time, it takes only a handful of seconds to answer the question the app's name poses. Even if there's not much you can necessarily do with that knowledge, you might still want to know!
