    Summary: 
    "How will automation affect the jobs of factory workers, executives, lawyers, physicians, bankers, accountants, journalists, artists, and many other people over the next decade? Will robots and artificial intelligence lead us to a jobless world? These are increasingly pressing questions as robots and artificial intelligence are already replacing growing numbers of workers, and several studies predict that they may take over an even greater number of occupations in the near future. In his new book, Oppenheimer--a Miami Herald columnist and a member of a Pulitzer Prize-winning team--tells us what the workforce will look like. He traveled to Japan to sleep in a robot-staffed hotel; visited forward-thinking high-tech companies in South Korea, Israel, and Silicon Valley; studied the sales strategies of motorcycle-riding bankers in Costa Rica; dined at a fully automated restaurant in San Francisco; and interviewed some of the world's leading futurists in nearly a dozen countries. The Robots Are Coming! is a trepidatious and alarming exploration of the rise of automation and a cautionary tale about the future of jobs."--Back cover.
