AI and robotics are set to profoundly change the world of work and our society in the years to come. Backed by an impressive array of technological achievements and attracting some of the finest minds the scale of this change will be substantial and rapid. However technology is not destiny and impressive technological achievements don’t automatically equate to economic and social progress. In this webinar Professor Daron Acemoğlu of MIT and Professor Andrew J Scott of London Business School discussed where we are currently heading with technology, what the likely impact will be on jobs and what needs to be done at an individual, corporate and government level to ensure that technological achievement delivers true technological progress for society.
