The Future of Work

For huge numbers of people jobs provide income and a sense of purpose. We are fast approaching a time when artificial intelligence and robots will be trusted to do a better job than humans at everything from driving to diagnosing medical conditions. But our economy is structured to thrive with a robust engaged workforce. What happens when the nature and number of jobs change substantially? This Conversation will focus on how we see the nature of work evolving with advances in technology.
