This Roundtable interview on TRT World was recorded on November 14, 2017.

More machines less manpower. Automation is increasing -- but are humans paying a price for progress with their jobs?

As technology advances, we're building machines capable of doing more. But is the pace of change too fast? Does the focus also need to be on adapting human roles, to maintain workforces and economies?

At the Roundtable was executive chairman of the Ayn Rand Institute, Yaron Brook; Trade UnionActivist, Rob Lugg; And Ann Pettifor, Director of the economic policy research organisation, Prime Economics.
