We need to prepare youth for the fourth revolution


Abstract

The Transformers and Terminator film franchises have brought us to the realm of the impossible, where robots are like human beings — they can walk, talk and behave like one. But in this century everything is possible.

The creation of the robot “Sophia” in 2016, for instance, has proven that everything is possible in this modern era. In the film The 6th Day by Roger Spottiswoode, the theory of human cloning seems far-fetched until the achievement by Dr Ian Wilmut from Scotland in 1997.

He produced Dolly, the first cloned sheep that made headlines all over the world.
Thus, the Industrial Revolution 4.0, or 4IR, will produce vast changes in various sectors.
