AI is advancing faster than even technology experts predicted, and the impact on the world of work is a central concern. As the capabilities of generative AI rise exponentially, human imagination is struggling to keep up. Can imagine a future of meaningful cooperation with advanced technology – or a world where goods and value could be created without human work? What would these different realities mean for our future lives and lifestyles, and for our collective welfare, wellbeing, and wealth – and what future would we want?

This panel will explore the pathways and challenges for integration for peoples of migratory and displacement backgrounds. It will highlight and explore the exclusionary dynamics of migratory regimes, and how these might be challenged.

The gathered activists will focus on their own lived experiences and share how all might intervene and construct their own advocacy agendas to construct truly inclusive societies in Switzerland, in particular, and globally, more broadly.

On-location platform work has been hitting headlines across the globe with concerns, disputes, and rapid developments in the employment status and conditions of workers - whether driving taxi’s, delivering food, or stocking warehouses. In contrast, online platform work is more invisible and less discussed – however its global nature makes it a high potential arena for both digitization and internationalization of work. This webinar aims to explore the nature and quality of virtual expert work on online labour market platforms, and its possibilities and challenges for expert workers and businesses outsourcing work at both national and international levels.

This event is the second in our new ‘TASC Break’ series, where the TASC Platform hosts short and informal session to share new insights and meet the people behind the papers.

Over the last year, the global workforce has experienced a massive shift to online remote work enabled by digital transformation and radically accelerated by the Covid-19 pandemic.
