LOCATION:Macquarie University City Campus Level 24\, 123 Pitt Street Sydney 2000 NSW
DESCRIPTION:The potential benefits of AI are hotly debated. But even if AI achieves its goals\, facilitating a significant increase in productivity\, automating tasks and allowing firms and people to more easily solve complex problems\, how will that reshape our (monetary) economies? Does AI mean an era of material abundance\, mass unemployment\, or both? 
Looking to past experiences of technological unemployment\, recent experiences with cash transfers during the pandemic and emerging evidence of employment changes\, this talk will explore the implications of AI success from the viewpoint of money\, work and value. Are these changes purely technological\, or is AI better understood as shaping social and political struggles over value? It will focus on longer-run dynamics\, exploring how lessons from previous technological transitions might apply to AI and opening up questions for discussion.
