Would the Fourth Industrial Revolution add to inequality in society ?
Digital world has brought comforts to the human life but at the cost of unpredictable and unsustainable economy . We can't predict the future innovations and hence the future economy . Such as, technology which would wipe out smartphone is not known today but it is certain that smartphone market would end in future in span of just few months . People would have new apps etc but the economy will face turmoil. Bubbles in economy are more common. Any instability in economy directly affects poor citizens .
The more skillful get more salary and lesser skilled the lesser salary . Also the population which can't access IT is left out of the benefits of 4th industrial Revolution, but they have to face turmoil of economy.
