Are robots finally replacing humans? Join Northwestern Engineering faculty fellow Mark Mills as he discusses emerging artificial intelligence and automation technologies, whether they’ll lead to “peak jobs,” and the possibility of a Universal Basic Income for citizens that are unemployable in the new “knowledge” workforce.
Mills is founder and CEO of Digital Capital Power, a tech-centric capital advisory group. He also co-founded the Digital Power Group, Digital Power Capital, and ICx Technologies. A trained physicist and development engineer, Mills served as a staff consultant to the White House Science Office under President Ronald Reagan, a number of federal research laboratories, and the US Department of Energy.
