How likely is your job to be automated?
Most of us recognise that self-checkouts are slowly replacing cashiers and bank tellers are being swapped for ATMs. For better or for worse, there are several, unexpected jobs that will become automated in the distant future. The World Bank’s detailed infographic tells you the probability of your job being computerised. According to the data, clerks and agricultural workers are at most risk, whereas doctors and teachers can sleep easy, for now.
The Counted
The US is infamous for unlawful deaths at the hands of the police. But when only some murders by police wind up on the news, how can the general public make sense of it all? The Counted, a project by the Guardian, aims to clear things up. This stripped back infographic monitors the demographics of those killed, while telling the stories of how they died. It displays information from journalists and the general public. Ultimately, the infographic keeps the public educated and the police force accountable – undoubtedly important work.
