colinneagle sends word that according to anew report it's not just blue collar workers who need to be concerned about being replaced with a robot, top execs should be worried too.

Those redundant tasks include 'analyzing reports and data to inform operational decisions; preparing staff assignments; and reviewing status reports,' the report says. This potential for automation in the executive suite is in contrast to 'lower-wage occupations such as home health aides, landscapers, and maintenance workers,' the report says. Those jobs aren't as suitable for automation, according to the report. The technology has not advanced enough."Read more of this story at Slashdot.
