What we notice from the tremendous development of artificial intelligence (such as robots, self-driving vehicles, etc. of modern technologies) will eliminate the role of man in accomplishing tasks and thus increasing unemployment?
Ali, I still feel it is too early to tell, but it nevertheless raises a number of possible issues apart from large scale unemployment. May I start of by listing a small number?
1) A sense of uselessness/pointlessness especially amongst young men if they find themselves replaced.
2) Responding with group violence or individual apathy.
3) The creation of sub cultures in which physicality is the norm.
4) A Frankenstein complex-arrogence they might result from humankind being a creator, and revulsion from its creation.
There must be a hundred more.

When we heard the name of Computers (late eighties and early nineties of last century), same types of discussions we're going on.
You may want it or may not, but technological developments will continue.
Problems will be for those people who could not adopt any technology for change in the work place.
The illiterate rickshaw pullers have to shift to auto rickshaw or Toto driving, otherwise they will be in deep trouble in future days.
Artificial intelligence will create new kinds of work
Humans will supply digital services to complement AI
WHEN the first printed books with illustrations started to appear in the 1470s in the German city of Augsburg, wood engravers rose up in protest. Worried about their jobs, they literally stopped the presses. In fact, their skills turned out to be in higher demand than before: somebody had to illustrate the growing number of books.
Fears about the impact of technology on jobs have resurfaced periodically ever since. The latest bout of anxiety concerns the arrival of artificial intelligence (AI). Once again, however, technology is creating demand for work.
To take one example, more and more people are supplying digital services online via what is sometimes dubbed the “human cloud”. Counter-intuitively, many are doing so in response to AI.

The robots and everything else will free the man from all manual and repetitive work. The resulting unemployment can be mitigated with the proceeds of a tax to be applied on robots. In addition, pensions, health and education will also be paid out of the proceeds of the aforementioned tax. Entrepreneurs will pay less tax as robot tax will be less than the fees paid for human labor. Furthermore, accidents at work will be reduced with enormous benefits for workers' health, and general taxation because it will save on the costs of treatment. Therefore man will have more time to devote himself to more intellectual work.
Definitly No!
It will change direction / role only. Enhancement in efficiency can create more new tasks resulting in more new jobs, not limit it.

Although artificial intelligence surpasses humans in performing very few specific tasks, it is still very limited in the field of "general intelligence". However, this does not mean that we are not afraid of the impact of artificial intelligence on the community,these systems are considered more stupid than mice (according to the head of artificial intelligence on Facebook Yan Likon) ,this will not prevent them from having a significant impact on our lives, especially in the field of work.
I don't think it will eliminate the role of the Human beings in the near future.
AI will enhance the work speed and at the same time it will create NEW jobs for human to do.
