What to expect
Sarah O'Connor of the FT in conversation with the Guardian's Heather Stewart and Professor Sue Turner of Bristol, on her book We Are Not Machines. Her finding is that the damage shows up less as job losses than as work becoming lonelier and less creative — alongside cases where workers took control of the tools and made the job better.
Part of Bristol's Festival of Economics, around £6 to £12, an hour at the Watershed. Group and school discounts available. She covers similar ground at King's in London in early October if November in Bristol is too far off.
