Speaker Website: www.normative.com
Topic Description:
A new generation of workers are coming — they are software, robots, and machine intelligence. We’re already seeing this shift as software permeates our built environment, our cars, and even our clothing. Over time, the line between what’s human and computer will be blurred. How can we embrace this progress in our workplaces in order to augment our own work? How can we work with machines to leverage the best of human capability and the best of computer capability? Human-computer collaboration is here to stay and has the potential to create a better and fairer society for everyone. It’s up to all of us to shape how.

Symposium Theme:
Design plays a major role in reshaping the way we work. It helps us imagine different futures, transitioning “old ways” of doing things, to new and “better” ways of doing and being. In TO DO’s third annual symposium ‘Designing the Future of Work’, multidisciplinary speakers contribute to a better understanding of how design can, and must , be leveraged to make the future of work work for all of us.
