Society
A world where AI creates jobs for people. An all-out reportage that goes through the darkest part of the ever-expanding "gig work". Amazon, Google, Microsoft and Uber. The existence and reality of countless "invisible workers" lurking behind the automated services provided by large companies. The "Cultural Anthropologists x Computer Sociologists" tell the real story of the change in "labor" as it enters a new phase. An estimated 8 percent of Americans have worked at least once in "ghost work," and more and more. They typically earn less than the legal minimum for traditional "jobs," have no health benefits, and are fired at any time for any reason. There are still no labor laws governing this type of "job," and these last-day assembly lines attract an amazingly diverse range of workers -- young single mothers rushing for money, experts forced to retire early, and those who fail to find employment. They suffer from overwork and underpay every day. What do you think of the "invisible workers," which is expected to grow as information and mechanization advances? What can employers, workers and society do about this new type of job and its people?
