A robot valet parking service in Germany, built by Serva Transport, is creating jobs not taking them away according to J.P. Gownder, an analyst with the Boston-based tech research firm Forrester. At Vanguard Plastics in Connecticut, a machine called Baxter is manufacturing goods in ways machines never could in the past. Robotic valet parking works by the car owner parking their car into a bay, then by pressing a button on a touch screen a robotic lift takes the car off the ground into an aerial parking bay. The robots are being used at several German airports and will be rolled out across Germany over the next few years. Although 9.1 million jobs in the US are reportedly set to be replaced by robots by 2025, Wired examines why jobs will actually be created as a result of more robots.
