The Technology Trap

Carl Benedikt Frey

Recommended by 1 person on the record.

The bar next to each date shows how long ago it was said: 7d is days, 4yr is years.

Jasmine Sun recommends it
Um my second book is The Technology Trap from Carl Benedikt Frey, which I think is very much about how people's attitudes towards technology and automation depend on to what extent the benefits, the economic growth, is shared, to what extent they feel like they're getting a piece of the pie.

That little bar

It says how long ago something was said, so you can tell last month from 2014 without doing the arithmetic. Full and green is recent; it drains and cools as the date gets older, and empties completely at about 6 years.

A striped bar means the date itself is an estimate — the source did not carry an exact one. An entry with no date at all gets no bar.
