Can Knowledge Based Systems Solve the Skills Crisis?

Knowledge comes in three parts

First one is educational knowledge which is transfered from teacher to student.

Second is ability of student to develop to used that knowledge in practice and build over that

Third is ability of individual to use the knowledge provided in first to dream for future and that is hard to capture.

75 % of work force in company is first type learn in school and then used that in job to meets work requirements and support individual in number 2

Number 2 is the the one who uses school knowledge and make automation and make business profitable and they are 20 % of the work force

There is not more 5 % which has the degree from first and then start dreaming and make other life little easier like invented bulb, telephone and others and currently trying to develop things like holographic electronic systems so we can beam out to our relation when we want to talk to them and beam out after discussion watch TV sitting around living area and also in our back yard. Have ability to sense disaster before it knocks our door and I can go on

Back in the previous century, when I worked for Campbells Soup, we were involved an a number of "knowledge" systems. I spent time in classes listening to demonstrations of 1st line medical diagnosis replacement systems, automatic driving systems, etc. The funny thing is I still see we have a shortage of Doctors & Engineers so I wonder what became of all that previously developed wonder tech? Maybe society need to unwind itself from the impatience & greed that has overtaken us & start pushing kids to become Engineers (& Chemists & Biologists, etc) instead of parents wanting kids to get multiple business degrees so they can be "successful".
