Martin Ford

Futurist Martin Ford, author of 'Rise of the Robots', and labor economist Betsey Stevenson, former U.S. Department of Labor official, explore the dual-edged sword of AI in the workforce. They discuss the potential job displacement across sectors and the historical context of technological shifts. The conversation spans the debate on universal basic income versus digital dividends, and the importance of adapting education for future needs. Finally, they address crucial questions about finding meaning in a world where work may radically change.
