When robots perform mundane tasks, the marginal utility of human labor increases in sectors requiring emotional intelligence-a trait robots currently lack. However, this transition is fraught with the risk of structural unemployment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eApplying the law of supply and demand, if the supply of human labor remains static while the demand for human-specific skills decreases due to automation, wages for those roles will inevitably decline. Conversely, if the demand for high-skill, robot-augmented labor increases, the equilibrium wage for these new roles may rise, provided the workforce can adapt through rapid reskilling.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Notion Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47888864542871,"sku":"9798886412147","price":2476.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9798886412147.webp?v=1781169079","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/robots-bring-future-social-influence-9798886412147","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
