That cannot possibly be correct because there are no companies which have exhausted all potential customers in every potential industry.
It's not a matter of possible/potential, it's a matter of whether they see the risk justifiable enough. I'm sure Apple is thinking that the auto-drive-car biz is a big gamble being they don't have experience there, and they did display hesitation.
That's one of the reasons why many big co's are cash-rich: they don't expand because there are not enough consumers (with money) to buy their products if they expanded. Thus, they sit on cash, using it as an emergency or future strategic fund.
It's pretty safe to say that most those "new jobs" will require fairly hefty education requirements. Our current education system is not up to the task.
Bernie S. is right in that a college education (or equiv.) is now a necessity in the current economy the way a high-school education was in the recent past.
Almost everyone likes the idea of machines taking over grunt work like laundry and driving, but our society is NOT designed to distribute the benefits of AI evenly enough: many will get screwed, career-wise.
It's not so much about AI versus jobs, but how society adjusts (or doesn't). Change can be painful, especially if done wrong.
If the current trend continues, the owners of the technology will get really rich, and the rest will struggle or fail, fighting bitterly over the remaining scraps in ever uglier "culture wars", in part fueled by the rich who want to stay rich by demonizing those who complain.
ISIS is an American creation and they were using their creation to oust Assad until Russia stepped in. Now US is trying to save face and actually putting in some effort into stopping their monstrosity.
That's the way the Middle East is. Any one group gets too much power and they usually become assholes. Meddlers, like the US, try to balance things out so each group keeps each other in check, but that usually fails for various reasons. It's like building Frankensteins to stop other Frankensteins, and then acting surprised when they run amuck.
When ISIS is diminished, some other jerky clan will step in to be the Asshole of the Month and Washington DC pointy fingers will have another blamefest, and the Military Industrial Complex will have another jizzfest, showing off shiny new war-ware that doesn't really work. Rinse, repeat, profit!
I don't trust Trump to make smart cuts. He's not a details and logic guy, and he or his minions favor "trickle down" solutions over those that benefit the little guy directly. He might accidentally get a few right, but so would blindfolded dart throwers.
And then she observes that there was a very active generation of IT technicians 10 years ago eager to make a switch to Linux. But the younger people these days neither care too much about Windows or Linux; they are much more interested (and knowledgeable) in coding Android apps.
System admins generally don't want to be app coders, so this is comparing apples to oranges. Maybe MS has been spreading FUD in Munich?
Japan used to try this where the gov't heavily subsidized new industries. It usually didn't pan out. For example, they spent billions perfecting high-def analog video. But digital came along and ended the analog video market.
We hear about China's successes, but I'm sure there's a lot of failures that are suppressed. Socialized R&D has a mixed record.
The boundary of "racism" is nebulous. For example, many conservatives believe that "the system" is rigged so that most their tax money is going to minorities who are "kept lazy" by not being required to work or given preference because of Affirmative Action instead of merit.
That's not necessarily direct racism, in terms of belief of genetic inferiority, but it's a belief that certain groups are treated different by the government, causing social divides and unfairness.
Now, I have also met blatant racists. For example, one lady at work admonished me from associating with "their kind". And a civics professor of mine used in part a "no great civilizations in Africa" argument to claim blacks are genetically inferior. I also know people who are paranoid random Muslims will explode in their presence.
Make sure you FUND things like back-up tapes and document-security-review-and-inspection-staff. Certain parties like to cut their funds to sub-bare-bones.
It seems "web architectures" are just becoming unnecessarily complex, perhaps because architectural purists are over-doing pet concepts (not just OO), or because we are all waiting for a new web UI/standard to be invented so that "web apps" are not so damned Rube-Goldberg-ified.
"We have to do it that way because the web has no state and is not a real GUI." We'll, let's find a way to give it real state & real GUI then, instead of fake it with blindfolded twirling back-flips, turning CRUD into Braille rocket science.
When I question the complexity, I'm treated as an over-the-hill dude who hates change. I just smell complexity creep and am trying warn people they are marrying a stack and not just dating it. They see "try new things" in the sense of "dabble in making a baby". (We'll, I guess that's what teens do.)
A typical shop's Dot-Net MVC architecture requires knowing MVC, Entity Framework, LINQ, Razor, and bits of other doo-dads. If all your ducks are lined up, then most of the architecture takes care of lots of stuff for you; BUT what happens when something goes wrong 7 years from now and you have to dig deep to fix it, say you need a database tweak, or a security bug needs patching in Entity Framework that changes its behavior, and nobody around remembers MS-MVC guts because it may be replaced by something new? I seriously doubt MS-MVC is the pinnacle of web apps such that it will likely be left in the dust by some Next Big Thing like most IT things.
I don't gettit. Can somebody mathematically prove this Dagwood-sandwich stack complexity is objectively the best we can do? It smells really wrong to me.
"you might very well be correct, and if you can find an international standards body recognized completely outside of your religious organization in [insert field]...
I'm sure they can find some "internationally recognized" body of sufficient size that mostly shares their religious beliefs for a given subject.
It would make the test easier, I'm jealous.

Anyhow, how is my statement "promoting" such? The award is generally NOT considered prestigious by the recipient.
If a Republican dies of heat stroke, they may qualify for a Darwin Award.

In general, people and orgs will NOT pay extra for security when given a choice. That's just the way it is.
I believe he excluded nukes as the secret in the video.

Use their own weapons against them: Start teaching Satanism and Pastafarianism in science, history, etc. and watch their feathers ruffle.
