Robots Taking Over What Will Humans Do?

Henderson, Hazel, 1933- (host.). Ethical Markets Media, (production company.). Films Media Group, (film distributor.).

Summary: NASA Chief Scientist Dennis Bushnell and futurist Hazel Henderson explore the advance of automation as more and more sectors of industrial societies are digitized: from manufacturing to retailing, accounting, healthcare, education, legal services, and even finance. They discuss emerging alternatives such as worker-owned companies; cooperative enterprises; and guaranteed basic incomes now enacted in Brazil, Mexico, and proposed in Switzerland, Europe, and the USA.
