摘要

自2017年以来，通过约翰内斯堡大学的倡导以及随后任命的第四次工业革命总统委员会，第四次工业革命的话题在南非变得重要起来。之前的工业革命都集中在一种技术上;然而，第四次工业革命是技术的融合，是计算、数据和通信技术的协同作用，人工智能正在迅速重新定义工作世界。尽管存在概念和地缘政治挑战以及潜在的负面社会影响，但我们认为，第四次工业革命范式的转变对南非和实现可持续发展目标至关重要

The Fourth Industrial Revolution: Conceptual paradox or catalyst for achieving the Sustainable Development Goals?

The topic of the Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR) became significant in South Africa from 2017, through advocacy, amongst others, by the University of Johannesburg and subsequently through the appointment of the Presidential Commission on 4IR. Preceding industrial revolutions each focused on a single technology; 4IR, however, speaks to a confluence of technologies and a synergy of computing, data, and communications technology, with artificial intelligence rapidly redefining the world of work. Conceptual and geopolitical challenges and potential negative societal implications notwithstanding, we argue that the 4IR paradigm shift is critical to South Africa and to realising the Sustainable Development Goals

期刊介绍： The South African Journal of Science is a multidisciplinary journal published bimonthly by the Academy of Science of South Africa. Our mandate is to publish original research with an interdisciplinary or regional focus, which will interest readers from more than one discipline, and to provide a forum for discussion of news and developments in research and higher education. Authors are requested to write their papers and reports in a manner and style that is intelligible to specialists and non-specialists alike. Research contributions, which are peer reviewed, are of three kinds: Review Articles, Research Articles and Research Letters.
