Can the next wave of automation be designed around making workplaces built for humans, rather than shifting further towards workers becoming nothing more than cogs in the machine. 

Join us a for a public discussion with thinkers from the fields of design, robotics, policy and business, hosted by the Masters in Research Design Pathway group from the Royal College of Art.
