Imagine a self-contained kiosk that provides a user interface for 3D modeling and customizing objects and has a 3D printer built in. This device is placed in a public place, like an airport or shopping mall, so that customers can design their own product, pay, and print it on the spot. Consider the crowds that would gather to watch the printing process. In my day, we excitedly gathered 'round the gumball machine to watch the big gumball spiral down the clear plastic cylinder to get to the opening at the bottom!

This type of kiosk is an example of a new technology that would create jobs.
Name and describe three of these new jobs.
