Artificial Intelligence and the Future of Work: Can We Harness Digital Technology for More Fair, Safer, and Inclusive Employment Environments?
Professor Lobel, the Warren Distinguished Professor of Law and founding director of the Center for Employment and Labor Policy at the University of San Diego, is an award-winning author and influential tech and employment policy scholar.
Lobel defends technology as a powerful tool we can harness to achieve equality and a better future. With a rich array of case studies from the labor market and beyond, Lobel makes a compelling argument that while we cannot stop technological development, we can direct its course according to our most fundamental values. She argues for proactively directing and governing increasingly automated and datafied markets and societies in ways that serve social goals including fairness, equality, welfare, health, and justice.
