Description

The technologies of the 21st century—self driving cars, on-demand services, AI, etc—are expected to have a huge impact on work and society, but that power must be used wisely. Many people blame technology for loss of current and anticipated future jobs—but history tells us that technology kills professions, not jobs. Instead of using technology to replace people, can we use it to augment them so they can do things that were previously impossible? How can we shape the next economy to broadly benefit society? Hear from Tim O’Reilly, CEO of O’Reilly Media and Author of “WTF: What’s the Future and Why It’s Up to Us,” and Elizabeth Dwoskin, Silicon Valley Correspondent at The Washington Post, as they explore the upside and the potential downsides of the next economy.
