It is not true that automation has caused the rise of unemployment since 2008. What is noticeable, though, is that structural unemployment – the unemployment that remains even after economies have recovered – has been on an upward trend over the last 25 years.
将2008年来的失业率增加归咎于自动化的影响并不准确。但值得注意的是结构性失业——也就是经济复苏后仍然存在的失业问题——25年来一直处于上升趋势。我们发现控制失业率的工作越来越艰巨。
