Overview
Explore the future of work and automation in this thought-provoking 50-minute talk from The Aspen Institute. Delve into the idea that job loss from automation is not inevitable, but rather a choice influenced by how we design and implement technology. Examine the economic principle that growth occurs when technology is used to expand capabilities rather than solely reduce costs. Investigate the types of activities and innovations that should be prioritized to foster a more human-centered economy. Consider the emerging economic trends and discuss policies that could support a positive future. Featuring an insightful conversation between interviewer Charles Duhigg and tech visionary Tim O'Reilly, this talk, underwritten by EY, offers valuable perspectives on shaping a better economic future in the face of technological change.
