Future Forward Episode #0092 / The Labor Day Edition

Today - a deep dive into the world of Labor. Workers. Jobs. and How Robots Could Change EVERYTHING. I’m Alexa Scordato and this is Future Forward. Then, as Robots loom on the horizon One Politician says he has a plan. Then, we’ll go even further - what if Robot’s ‘Replace’ politicians? I’m Steven Rosenbaum… or an algorithm program to sound like me. Let’s Launch!

A lot has changed in the more than 100 years since Labor Day was first recognized and celebrated. Two world wars, space travel, penicillan, the evolution from a rural to urban society, the evolution from an agricultural to manufacturing to service economy. To most of us, Labor Day’s origins and meaning are long forgotten; lost in history books abandoned on library shelves. But what’s more, in the context of our modern society, on the cusp of a Fourth Industrial Revolution, what does Labor Day mean now?
