Media Review: Robotization of Work? Answers from Popular Culture, Media and Social Sciences
本书通过科幻作品、媒体报道和社会科学分析,探讨人类对工作自动化的恐惧与希望,适合关注技术与社会交叉的读者。
Robotization of Work delves into humanity’s fears and hopes surrounding automation in employment. It draws upon science fiction, the media, and social science. The book is based on the assumption that the inclusion of popular media, such as films and books, is vital not only to our understanding of how robots are perceived and feared, but it is truly a cycle of inspiration. Life imitates art, and art inspires life. But, of course, the focus cannot be merely on fiction for scientific concerns, so the authors also present a plethora of news articles and interviews situated further from fiction and closer to fact to expose humanity’s fears, and hopes, surrounding automation in employment.
