Oxford researchers say that 45 percent of America’s occupations will be automated within the next 20 years.

According to our estimates, about 45
percent of total US employment is at risk. We further provide evidence
that wages and educational attainment exhibit a strong negative relationship
with an occupation’s probability of computerisation.
And there is worry that 3D Printing technology could spell the end of the fashion industry as we know it.
3D printing jeopardizes jobs for around 50 million women, spread across every continent, and in most countries of the world. That's a full fourteenth of the world's population - one woman in every seven - out of work. Unless someone comes up with a plan. Today around 60 million people work in garment factories worldwide. They uphold an economy that, according to the World Trade Organization (WTO), sees around $700 billion of global trade annually, although elsewhere this has been reported as high as $1.2 trillion.
