"#COVID19 is forcing the automation of interpersonal services that have long been considered a last safe refuge for low-skilled human labour. & it is workers in developing countries with weak social protection & health systems where unemployment insurance is a luxury who suffer."

More than half a billion people could be pushed into #poverty due to #COVID19.

A thought-provoking and neat @UNUWIDER WP by @LukasSchlogl on structural transformation, technological development, and automation/robotization with some super-informative tables and figures!

[Lukas Schlögl (@schl.bsky.social) @LukasSchlogl]

In a new working paper, I distinguish 'technology leap' from 'technology creep' and discuss novel constellations of structural change.

Comments *very* welcome!
