Empowering organizations to drive real, and positive change through UX and design research insights.
I recently finished reading "Ghost Work," and it was a fascinating deep dive into the unseen human labor that powers our seamless automated systems. Mary Gray and Siddharth Suri brilliantly explore the "paradox of automation’s last mile," where even the most advanced AI still creates new, unforeseen tasks that require human intervention. This book reveals that despite our drive toward complete automation, human labor remains essential, reshaping the landscape of work in profound ways. 📚 Key Takeaways: ◆ On-Demand Service Work: The authors highlight how advanced AI continuously creates temporary labor markets, demonstrating the persistent need for human input alongside machines. ◆ Diverse Workforce: The gig economy's strength lies in its diverse workforce, spanning various educational backgrounds and skills. This diversity contributes to both efficiency and inevitable friction. ◆ Human Impact: The book sheds light on the dehumanizing aspects of algorithmic arbitrariness, where workers face disenfranchisement yet continue for cognitive benefits and flexibility. One of the most compelling aspects of the book is its call for more humane and dignified platforms. The authors advocate for fair treatment, better communication channels, and leveraging public education to support on-demand workers. "Ghost Work" is both practical and hopeful, sparking a vital conversation about the human workers behind our tech-driven world. It underscores the need for societal changes to protect and empower these essential workers. I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in the future of work, automation, and the gig economy. It's an eye-opening read that will change the way you think about the intersection of technology and human labor.

"The term "gold-collar" jobs refers to highly-skilled professionals in high-demand fields, such as doctors, lawyers, engineers, pilots and scientists. The designation "gold-collar" distinguishes these professionals from traditional white-collar and blue-collar workers, reflecting the specialized nature of their roles and the high compensation that comes with it. The term was first used by Robert Earl Kelley in his 1985 book the Gold-Collar Worker." #goldcollar #relevance #highlyskilled

This article presents a bold and alarming assertion stating that nearly 50% of current #workforce job skills will be obsolete by 2025. Are you in agreement? Often, when we read these kinds of prophetic arguments, one of the initial thoughts that comes to the forefront is whether these are cross-industry or sector specific. What are your thoughts?

Artificial intelligence is poised to have a significant impact on our workforce, and the actions we take now will determine the degree of challenges and opportunities the technology brings for workers paid the lowest wages. Thankfully, Roosevelt Institute’s newest brief offers a timely and creative approach: strengthening worker power through policy to shape the impact of AI and other new technologies. The brief posits that our current system, where policymakers must address each new technology with new regulations, isn’t always effective. Roosevelt Institute offers an innovative strategy for adopting new technologies in the workplace, specifically to advance a set of policies to make it easier to organize, bargain collectively, increase workplace protections, and enforce existing regulations. The recent resurgence in labor organizing has taught us, among other lessons, that complex challenges require creative solutions. I am continuously inspired by the work of The James Irvine Foundation’s grantees, including our support of the Roosevelt Institute for analysis and recommendations to build a better future of work and for workers. #AI #Policy #WorkerPower https://lnkd.in/gdbdwbS7
