See one, do one, teach one. This is the way so many of us learned how to do our jobs through mentorships, apprenticeships and other on-the-job training schemes. But AI and robotics are changing the way we teach many important skills says automation expert and assistant professor at the University of California Santa Barbara, Dr Matt Beane. He says we're sacrificing learning in the name of productivity and that's reducing human ability. In his new book he argues that we need to find a way to use new intelligent technologies while maintaining relationships between experts and new workers coming up through the ranks .
