Host: Dr Lu, thank you for joining us. So, as a futurist, can you tell us how life will be different in 50 years?
Dr Lu: Well, you'll see robots working everywhere.
Host: Can you give us some examples?
Dr Lu: Well, as we all know, China's robotics industry is growing fast. Robots will make our life easier. We'll have service robots. They will do almost all our housework. They will also help save lives when disasters and emergencies happen.
Host: So, what jobs will humans still do in the future?
Dr Lu: Good question! Some jobs today will disappear in the coming years. However, there will be more challenging jobs in the future, such as space pilots and AI experts.
Host: Do you think robots will replace humans one day?
Dr Lu: No, I don't. Our creativity and emotional intelligence are important for relationships. AI will not replace humans for these things.
Host: You mentioned AI. How will AI change our world?
Dr Lu: Well, it will certainly change how we work, study, and live. For example, a smart refrigerator will know what you need and order food for you when you're running low.
