Abstract
We are facing the biggest revolution since the invention of the steam engine and electricity. This 21st century revolution is based on artificial intelligence and automation technologies. With the development of productive artificial intelligence, both social and economic transformations of countries have begun. At this point, especially developed countries are carrying out many activities to become leaders in artificial intelligence and automation technologies. But this situation does not only concern developed countries. It is also important for underdeveloped and developing countries to develop and reach the levels of developed countries. Artificial and intelligence automation technologies, along with various positive assumptions, have raised concerns that people may lose their jobs and that robots and human labor may be replaced. At this point, it is important for countries to establish a labor policy integrated with artificial intelligence and automation technologies. In this study, the development of industrial robots, one of the important computational data of artificial intelligence and automation, is discussed. In particular, Turkey has been examined and the displacement effect of labor has been observed. As a result of the study, policy recommendations have been developed for Turkey.
