YOUR ORDER IS ON ITS WAY
4K video, colour, sound, 7 min 28 s, 2021
The video Your Order Is on Its Way deals with the scenario in which computers and robots have taken over the labour of humans. We are witnessing a transition, where self-driving vehicles and their manual counterparts coexist. Even if some robots are fully functional, they’re still monitored and tested. In recent years, the transportation sector has started to become increasingly automatic, something which most economic sectors have been moving towards for more than a century. Supposedly in a couple of decades, most drivers and bicycle couriers will be replaced by self-driving cars and robotic delivery vehicles. This growing automation raises questions about different future scenarios: will there be more free time, will the universal basic income become a reality or will new types of jobs emerge, like they have in the past?
