Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Moore's Law predicts that technology will continue to advance at an exponential rate, which means that routine cognitive skills (like data entry) will become increasingly automated and replaceable. In order to maintain job security, Peter would need to develop nonroutine cognitive skills that require human judgment and problem-solving abilities. Systems thinking involves understanding how different components of a complex system interact with each other, and is a skill that is difficult to automate. Programming skills could also be useful, but they are becoming increasingly common and may not provide as much job security in the long run. Tax accounting is a routine cognitive skill that is already being automated, and is therefore not a good choice for developing job security.
