Why has median income stopped rising in the US?
Why is the share of population that is working falling so rapidly?
Why are our economy and society are becoming more unequal?
A popular explanation right now is that the root cause underlying these symptoms is technological stagnation-- a slowdown in the kinds of ideas and inventions that bring progress and prosperity.
In Race Against the Machine, MIT's Erik Brynjolfsson and Andrew McAfee present a very different explanation. Drawing on research by their team at the Center for Digital Business, they show that there's been no stagnation in technology -- in fact, the digital revolution is accelerating. Recent advances are the stuff of science fiction: computers now drive cars in traffic, translate between human languages effectively, and beat the best human Jeopardy! players.
As these examples show, digital technologies are rapidly encroaching on skills that used to belong to humans alone. This phenomenon is both broad and deep, and has profound economic implications. Many of these implications are positive; digital innovation increases productivity, reduces prices (sometimes to zero), and grows the overall economic pie.
But digital innovation has also changed how the economic pie is distributed, and here the news is not good for the median worker. As technology races ahead, it can leave many people behind. Workers whose skills have been mastered by computers have less to offer the job market, and see their wages and prospects shrink. Entrepreneurial business models, new organizational structures and different institutions are needed to ensure that the average worker is not left behind by cutting-edge machines.
In Race Against the Machine Brynjolfsson and McAfee bring together a range of statistics, examples, and arguments to show that technological progress is accelerating, and that this trend has deep consequences for skills, wages, and jobs. The book makes the case that employment prospects are grim for many today not because there's been technology has stagnated, but instead because we humans and our organizations aren't keeping up.
翻译是个“对技术高度敏感行业”,而出版则是道地的“夕阳产业”——大概是因为同时身处这两个不怎么讨好的领域,一直以来,我非常关心两个话题: 一是,机器翻译有没有可能取代人工翻译,如果能,这一幕会在什么时候发生。 在本书两位作者所举“机器将取代人工”的例子中,...
评分充斥在市面上的大量Geek文化,由于网络平台而扩散到日常生活中。曾几何时,你本来学国画的朋友开始追捧电子产品,高中数学徘徊及格线的老同桌也力推IT文化,更别提隔壁中专毕业的吴老二老跑新华书店买书自学逻辑电路了。“技术宅拯救世界”这样的流行语只是对信息技术崇拜的一...

评分Inspiring. The acceleration of technology is racing ahead but many of our skills and organizations are lagging behind.The solutions is racing with the machine instead of racing against the machine.
评分技术革命带来不平等和不充分就业
评分新的思路
评分书中说,技术进步犹如那个传说里64格棋盘上不断翻倍的米粒,前32格的增长其实不太显著,后一半的速度就非同寻常了,而我们可能刚好迈进第33格,对劳动力市场真正的冲击才刚刚开始。同人于野的文章差不多覆盖了这书80%的内容,但漏了一小点:干最低端的活的人受技术进步的影响,和高端技术人员一样,都不大。最惨的是中间那截。不过这点两位作者没展开谈就是了。
评分MIT两位大神拉的屎
