How Does Exponential Tech Affect the Job Market and What Can Be Done about It?
Transformative growth in robotics and artificial intelligence has revolutionized many industries, but the progress comes at a cost: technological unemployment for countless workers. With the effects already influencing retail, transportation, manufacturing and agriculture sectors, what strategies can we implement to ensure that exponential tech advances work toward supporting the job market, not undermining it?
Join Darlene Damm for a detailed examination of this hot-button issue, the scope of its impact, and practical solutions for redirecting these innovations to benefit humanity in Singularity University's second Experts on Air broadcast.
In this webcast, you will:
Identify concrete solutions being proposed to combat technological unemployment
Discover how we can plan ahead to support workers whose jobs are most likely to be impacted by technology-based staffing changes
Understand how to actively explore new solutions to mitigate job loss caused by increased adoption of automation, artificial intelligence, robotics and horizon technologies
Entrepreneurs, business leaders, economists, software developers and scientists alike will find this fascinating discussion about the abundant future of the workplace and job market extremely relevant.
