The panel will look at how the business and employment landscape has been — and will be — altered by increasing automation and better computers.
Already, we've seen checkout jobs replaced in places like CVS and Walgreens. But we're also starting to see higher-level jobs displaced, like legal researchers and some Wall Street number-crunchers. So where are robots and automation taking us? Are they fundamentally changing our economy? And where will the jobs of the future really be?
This event is co-sponsored by Suffolk University's Sawyer Business School.

Willy Shih, professor, Harvard Business School
