What changes for Food Batchmakers?
The forecast starts from the national projection per occupation and adds AI and robotics as separate layers. The band of -5% to +10% matters more than the midpoint. Robotics: Food factories are already largely automated and this is part of the trend; little extra acceleration. (Expert estimate 5/10, effect to 2030 between 0% and −1%.)
I build with AI. And I track what it does to work.
I'm Simon Janssen, CTO and management board member at HappyNurse. This map shows, occupation by occupation, what AI does to work, based on official labour-market data rather than hype. On LinkedIn I share what I see as a CTO: what AI is already taking over, what it isn't, and what that means for people.
