Clever way to draw public attention to the subject.
I've actually read Artur's book (https://www.amazon.com/Robot-Bos...) and it's a sober look at the future of automation and how we can apply it in our businesses.
Do you offer consulting services on applying AI?

Hey, awesome idea and kind of addictive in a way of checking all professions I have in my head :) I'm wondering how do you calculate % and probability for specific profession?
@yulian_ustiyanovych thanks man. the computerization probability is actually taken from the Oxford research data:
http://www.oxfordmartin.ox.ac.uk...
and I've taken a similar approach with figuring out the probability of having an algorithmic management - using the probabilistic classification algorithm that takes into account existing public data of the occupations:

And on top of that I have around 24 different combinations/scenarios that build up on your specific sets of results (robo score, computerization, wage, employment growth)
🤖 Hey everyone!
My name is Artur Kiulian, I'm a serial entrepreneur, top AI writer on Medium and the author of Robot Is The Boss, the book about how to use Artificial Intelligence in Business.
And here's why I've decided to build this tool that tells your chances of having an algorithmic management 💡
Algo management is already in charge of important business decisions, planning and performance assessment in many on-demand mobility and delivery services that make up the so called gig economy.
In Deliveroo, a London-based food delivery company, most of the couriers’ actions are tightly controlled by algorithmic management. If a courier declines the order, strict algorithms would penalize them. Deliveroo’s algorithmic system carefully monitors a courier’s performance calculating his/her average “time to accept orders”, “travel time”, and “unassigned orders”. If the courier’s performance does not meet a service level agreement, he or she might be blocked in the system.
Similar algorithmic procedures are used in Uber, the world-leading mobility service that connects passengers and drivers. At Uber, once a driver is logged into the system he or she has 10–20 second to accept trip requests. If three trip requests are missed in a row, a driver is automatically logged out for several minutes. In the case of frequent violation of Uber algorithmic policies, the driver’s account may be deactivated.
🤷 And the thing is that while most of the people are worried about losing the job to a machine, in reality there are way higher chances of being managed by a machine.
While this is already happening, no one is paying enough attention to the economical and psychological implications of this change.
I've already had a round of great feedback after running PH upcoming page (thanks @nickabouzeid and @rrhoover) and would love hear your thoughts about the tool and see if it is useful to the wide audience.

@nickabouzeid@rrhoover@arturkiulian Hey Arthur! Checked it out. Very cool! And that's great that my profession has only 3% chance of being automated. :)
Impressive attention to details and definitely smart move to promote the book, nicely done.
But can we discuss what 'replaced' means? Obviously intellectual professions like marketing or design that require a high level of empathy shouldn't completely disappear by 2020, but obviously, it evolves now and things can change dramatically. Say, business analyst nowadays collects data from AI's and put it in Excel, where formula calculates the progress. Can't see anything that can't be done without a human. So my point is that marketer, analyst, designer, whatever, will be a thing in the future, but can change beyond recognition. Funny to see fucking SMM managers pouring champagne because 'there's only 3% chance to be replaced by a machine'. Damn, you'll be replaced by another human being before robot comes in.
@volodarik there are actually couple of good cases of algorithmic executive operations, like PriOS by Bridgewater:
https://www.theguardian.com/tech...
They do plan to automate the CEO eventually and operate the company as a machine :)
Really nice! Happy to figure out that my job has just 1% of being replaced by machine. =) And I've read Artur's book - really nice structured guide to understand AI quickly written in simple language.
