Block Center for Technology and Society investigates the economic, organizational, and public policy impacts of technology.Artificial intelligence, robotics, machine learning, and advanced manufacturing already impact society, the economy, and our daily lives in profound ways. While many of these impacts are beneficial, laborers in some industries are being displaced due to automation, algorithms drive decision-making in powerful and often unseen ways, and new platforms and networks have fundamentally changed how people engage with, and contribute to, their world. Established in 2019, The Block Center focuses on how emerging technologies will alter the future of work, how AI and analytics can be harnessed for social good, and how innovation in these spaces can be more inclusive and generate targeted, relevant solutions that reduce inequality and improve quality of life for all.
