Exploring the Human-Technology partnership

Cityscape with radiating blue lights

Decision-making in blended human-machine hierarchies: As advanced technologies make their way into higher levels of organizations; decision-making may become increasingly objective.

New ways of assigning and distributing tasks: A divide will likely arise between what humans and machines are best able to do, requiring a reassessment of how tasks are assigned.

New jobs for a new economy: New technologies will increasingly displace workers, while simultaneously creating new opportunities for new and displaced workers.

Making space for new technologies: As automated technologies make their way into the built environment, physical spaces—including offices, roadways, and retail establishments—will need to adjust.
