A Conversation about Designing the Future of Work in a Digital World

from Nexus Institute for Work and AI: Research Deep Dive

This conversation explores how digital transformations like AI, robotics, and algorithmic management are fundamentally altering the structure and quality of work. Rather than viewing these changes as inevitable, they argues that the resulting impact on worker autonomy, skill use, and wellbeing is determined by specific design choices and organizational contexts. To ensure technology supports human flourishing, they propose multilevel strategies such as involving employees in technical implementation and adopting human-centered design principles. Furthermore, they advocate for macro-level policies and expanded education to move beyond simple digital literacy toward a deeper understanding of work design. Ultimately, the goal is to shift from a reactive stance to a proactive integration of social and technical systems that prioritizes both productivity and human needs.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
