Most valuable combinations of skills

Expect change. Fifty years ago, social media marketers were unimaginable. We can't anticipate how artificial intelligence and automation will change the job landscape.

Our ability to make sense of the world is our biggest asset. While artificial intelligence is good at repetitive tasks, humans are good at discovering creative solutions. 

• A liberal arts education might be the best antidote to automation. Studying art, philosophy, history, sociology, psychology, and neuroscience could help young people to have a broad range of knowledge that they can use to direct artificial intelligence.
• Nurturing creative thinking will help prepare your child for the future.

Artificial Intelligence will rule the jobs of the future. Future jobs are divided up into:

• People who build artificial intelligence.
• People who tell the machines what to do and determine what to do with their output.
• Celebrities: Actors, sports players, artists, writers, etc. in the entertainment industry. 

Children should be multi-disciplined. The focus of schools from the Industrial Age is to become really good at one thing. But this is dangerous for the next generation.

Encourage kids to become good at more than one thing. Children should be knowledgable about more than one subject area, giving them adaptability. Or, let them try out a lot of different stuff. Having a variety of experience will be very valuable.
