For Better and Worse: Future Tense Blogger Miles Brundage Looks at Both Sides of Technology's Influence on Work

Slate.com contributor Miles Brundage has published a new Future Tense blog reviewing two recent publications that he concludes focus too heavily on "how technology will affect the quantity of work, rather than the quality." Brundage questions whether the technology-enhanced workplace is "a future you should be looking forward to, if you're lucky enough to have a job in the future at all" and goes on to address work experience quality concerns, including the robotization of human workers, worsened working conditions, and the elimination of human wisdom and experience in workplace interactions.
