Description
"Could millions of jobs soon be eliminated by artificial intelligence and robots? From driverless cars to digital assistants, it seems the world of work is on the cusp of a technological revolution. But are the robots really knocking at the door? And what does all this mean for New Zealanders? In this far-sighted book, Kinley Salmon interrogates common predictions about a jobless future and explores what might happen to workers in New Zealand as automation becomes more widespread. He sketches out two bold alternative futures for New Zealand – and suggests what it might take, and what we might risk, to pursue each of them. Drawing upon interviews with key figures in New Zealand and abroad, including Lawrence Summers and Daron Acemoglu, this book delivers a deep and empowering assessment of the world ahead"--Back cover.
