Predictions For Working Life In 20 Years

Pause
Embed

In November of last year, we finally caught up to the future envisioned in the 1982 movie Blade Runner. But things may not be exactly how Ridley Scott Imagined. We don’t have flying cars, we don’t have Replicants, Los Angeles is not an oversized mega-city choked in smog - just yet. But we do have some of the technology that made an appearance in the movie, somewhat. Digital assistants are ubiquitous, video calling is the norm, and L.A. fashion is still questionable. But how do we think work life will actually be in 20 years time? How will we be working, what will we have to change?
