AI in Context

January 10, 2019

In this report, we provide new evidence and frameworks for thinking about the near-term impacts of automated and AI technologies on society. Our report demonstrates the necessity to integrate rather than deploy AI technologies and to account for how AI technologies reconfigure work practices rather than replace workers. We examine two American work environments in which AI technologies often are imagined to have great disruptive potential: agriculture and retail. Specifically, we analyze technologies being used in farm management and grocery retail, contrasting the utopian (and dystopian) visions that tend to accompany AI with the mundane realities of current automated technologies.
