Director's Cut
AI, Skills, and the Future of (No) work
How is artificial intelligence reshaping labor markets? Who stands to win—or lose—from the AI revolution, and what are the broader implications for youth, societies, and inequality? Drawing on his research analyzing 1.5 billion online job vacancies, as well as his close tracking of AI-related venture capital investments, Professor Antoniades explores these questions and offers an engaging, insightful, and thought-provoking assessment that challenges and stretches our understanding of the evolving relationship between technology, work, inequality, and societies.
