麦肯锡全球研究院的分析表明高级认知能力 — — 如逻辑推理、强大的沟通技巧以及社交和情感技巧 — — 将在重要性上大幅提升，而机器则将逐步取代当今工作场所随处可见的常规能力，包括数据搜集和处理等认知类工作。
MGI’s analysis shows that higher-level cognitive abilities – such as logical reasoning, stronger communication skills, and enhanced social and emotional skills – will become more important, while machines take over routine capabilities common in the workplace today, including in cognitive tasks like data collection and processing.
