    AI in Action Conference Series: Jobs in the Age of AI

    September 4, 2024  09:00AM - 05:00PM EST

    How will AI transform the job market? What new skills will workers need? What should be the role for regulation?

    This event brings together industry leaders, researchers, and policymakers to delve into these questions.

    The Center for Business and Public Policy at Georgetown University's McDonough School of Business and the World Bank are pleased to announce our third AI in Action Conference: Jobs in the Age of AI. This event will be held in the Copley Formal Lounge on the campus of Georgetown University (37th and O Streets, NW). Attendance is available either in-person (RSVP to Attend In-Person) or virtually (RSVP to Attend Virtually). 

    Carl Benedikt Frey, Dieter Schwarz Associate Professor of AI and Work at the Oxford Internet Institute, is the keynote speaker. Frey founded and currently directs the Future of Work Programme at the Oxford Martin School. He also serves as an economics associate of Nuffield College and a senior fellow at the Institute for New Economic Thinking. He has advised the G20, OECD, European Commission, and the United Nations, among others. His recent book, The Technology Trap, was a Financial Times Best Book of the Year in 2019.
