163. Ethics of Automation and Utopia for Human Flourishing in World Without Work | John Danaher
John Danaher (@johndanaher) is an author, podcaster and academic and lecturer at the National University of Ireland (NUI) focused on ethical, social and legal implications of emerging technologies, and other philosophical topics.
His book, Automation and Utopia: Human Flourishing in a World Without Work cuts through some of the hype and pessimism about automation and work, making a rigorous case for techno-utopianism about the future.
On his podcast, he interviews world leaders on the confluence of Society, Ethics and Tech.
