Yet this prosperity has come at an enormous price: deepening inequaliti es\, destabilising technologies\, environmental destruction and climate ch ange. Confusion reigns. For many\, in our era of anaemic economic progress \, the worry is slowing growth - in the UK\, Europe\, China and elsewhere. Others understandably claim\, given its costs\, that the only way forward is through 'degrowth'\, deliberating shrinking our economies.\n\nAt this time of uncertainty about growth and its value\, award-winning economist D aniel Susskind has written Growth: A Reckoning and in this talk\, with Pro fessor Ian Goldin\, Professor of Globalisation and Development\, he will a rgue that we cannot abandon growth but instead we must redirect it\, makin g it better reflect what we truly value. He will explores what really driv es growth\, and offers original ideas for combatting our economic slowdown .\n\nThis event will be followed by a drinks reception and book sale\, all welcome\n\nREGISTRATION\n\nTo register to attend in person in Oxford: htt ps://www.oxfordmartin.ox.ac.uk/events/growth-a-reckoning/\n\nTo register t o watch live online on Crowdcast click here: https://www.crowdcast.io/c/gr owth-a-reckoning\nSpeakers:\nDr Daniel Susskind (University of Oxford)\, P rofessor Ian Goldin (Director\, Oxford Martin Programme on Technological a nd Economic Change) LOCATION:Oxford Martin School (Lecture Theatre (and Online))\, 34 Broad St reet OX1 3BD TZID:Europe/London URL:https://talks.ox.ac.uk/talks/id/e37a5683-1c91-40e8-909c-1788d66b519b/ BEGIN:VALARM ACTION:display DESCRIPTION:Talk:Past\, present\, and future of economic growth: how we sh ould rethink it - Dr Daniel Susskind (University of Oxford)\, Professor Ia n Goldin (Director\, Oxford Martin Programme on Technological and Economic Change) TRIGGER:-PT1H END:VALARM END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Book talk: Cogs and Monsters: what economics is and what it should be' with Prof Diane Coyle (Online) - Prof Diane Coyle (University of Camb ridge)\, Professor Ian Goldin (Director\, Oxford Martin Programme on Techn ological and Economic Change) DTSTART;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20211110T170000Z DTEND;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20211110T180000Z UID:https://talks.ox.ac.uk/talks/id/27a6295d-6bcb-445b-bcdf-901ddef5d6be/ DESCRIPTION:Digital technology is disruptive\, and it is not sparing econo mics from that disruption.

But healthcare workers find themselves a t the frontlines of figuring out new ways to care for patients through\, w ith - and sometimes despite - their data. Paradoxically\, new data-intensi ve tasks required to make AI work are often seen as of secondary importanc e. Gina calls these tasks data work\, and her team studied how data work i s changing in Danish & US hospitals (Moller\, Bossen\, Pine\, Nielsen and Neff\, forthcoming ACM Interactions).\n\nBased on critical data studies an d organisational ethnography\, this talk will argue that while advances in AI have sparked scholarly and public attention to the challenges of the e thical design of technologies\, less attention has been focused on the req uirements for their ethical use. Unfortunately\, this means that the hidde n talents and secret logics that fuel successful AI projects are undervalu ed and successful AI projects continue to be seen as technological\, not s ocial\, accomplishments.\n\nIn this talk Professor Gina Neff\, Oxford Inte rnet Institute and Professor Ian Goldin\, Oxford Martin School\, will exam ine publicly known “failures” of AI systems to show how this gap betwe en design and use creates dangerous oversights and to develop a framework to predict where and how these oversights emerge. The resulting framework can help scholars and practitioners to query AI tools to show who and whos e goals are being achieved or promised through\, what structured performan ce using what division of labour\, under whose control and at whose expens e. In this way\, data work becomes an analytical lens on the power of soci al institutions for shaping technologies-in-practice.\nSpeakers:\nProfesso r Gina Neff (Oxford Internet Institute\, Department of Sociology\, Senior Research Associate\, Christ Church\, University of Oxford)\, Professor Ian Goldin (Director\, Oxford Martin Programme on Technological and Economic Change) LOCATION:Online TZID:Europe/London URL:https://talks.ox.ac.uk/talks/id/103b602f-5544-4961-98ee-d7331292aaec/ BEGIN:VALARM ACTION:display DESCRIPTION:Talk:Data work: the hidden talent and secret logic fuelling ar tificial intelligence - Professor Gina Neff (Oxford Internet Institute\, D epartment of Sociology\, Senior Research Associate\, Christ Church\, Unive rsity of Oxford)\, Professor Ian Goldin (Director\, Oxford Martin Programm e on Technological and Economic Change) TRIGGER:-PT1H END:VALARM END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:The ages of globalization - Professor Jeffrey Sachs (Columbia Univ ersity) DTSTART;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20201027T170000Z DTEND;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20201027T180000Z UID:https://talks.ox.ac.uk/talks/id/9ea35bc3-8537-4d48-a850-d9950c271814/ DESCRIPTION:We are justified to say that we are living through a new age o f globalisation\, which Professor Jeff Sachs calls the Digital Age.
