Why has median income stopped rising in the US?
Why is the share of population that is working falling so rapidly?
Why are our economy and society are becoming more unequal?
A popular explanation right now is that the root cause underlying these symptoms is technological stagnation-- a slowdown in the kinds of ideas and inventions that bring progress and prosperity.
In Race Against the Machine, MIT's Erik Brynjolfsson and Andrew McAfee present a very different explanation. Drawing on research by their team at the Center for Digital Business, they show that there's been no stagnation in technology -- in fact, the digital revolution is accelerating. Recent advances are the stuff of science fiction: computers now drive cars in traffic, translate between human languages effectively, and beat the best human Jeopardy! players.
As these examples show, digital technologies are rapidly encroaching on skills that used to belong to humans alone. This phenomenon is both broad and deep, and has profound economic implications. Many of these implications are positive; digital innovation increases productivity, reduces prices (sometimes to zero), and grows the overall economic pie.
But digital innovation has also changed how the economic pie is distributed, and here the news is not good for the median worker. As technology races ahead, it can leave many people behind. Workers whose skills have been mastered by computers have less to offer the job market, and see their wages and prospects shrink. Entrepreneurial business models, new organizational structures and different institutions are needed to ensure that the average worker is not left behind by cutting-edge machines.
In Race Against the Machine Brynjolfsson and McAfee bring together a range of statistics, examples, and arguments to show that technological progress is accelerating, and that this trend has deep consequences for skills, wages, and jobs. The book makes the case that employment prospects are grim for many today not because there's been technology has stagnated, but instead because we humans and our organizations aren't keeping up.

這是一本社會學的書,分析和結論讓我想到人類需要一次“大低榖”時期,除掉幾次産能革命之前遺留下來過多的低素質人口。。。(隻是隨便想想,我不敢反人類)
評分書中說,技術進步猶如那個傳說裏64格棋盤上不斷翻倍的米粒,前32格的增長其實不太顯著,後一半的速度就非同尋常瞭,而我們可能剛好邁進第33格,對勞動力市場真正的衝擊纔剛剛開始。同人於野的文章差不多覆蓋瞭這書80%的內容,但漏瞭一小點:乾最低端的活的人受技術進步的影響,和高端技術人員一樣,都不大。最慘的是中間那截。不過這點兩位作者沒展開談就是瞭。
評分喔喔,不錯的未來學著作,短小精悍!

这本书讨论了3个问题:为什么经济增长了,就业却没有增加,收入的中位数甚至下降了; 在棋盘的下半场,我们如何与机器竞争;我们还能持续创新吗? 本书对个人的启示有2点:要努力成为有技能的人,努力成为资产阶级,以便分到更大的蛋糕;要考虑如何利用机器提升自己的竞争力,...
評分自2000年以来,美国人才需求急剧下降。其中大部分失业是因为缺乏聘用所致,而非裁员增加。有工作的人的情况也不太好,在过去10年的适龄就业家庭中,实际中值收入从60746万美元降到了55821美元,自统计此类数据以来,中值收入首次出现降低的10年。但与此相对地是,人均实际国内...
評分 評分中国人强调勤劳,因为在农耕社会,只有黄牛犁地,或者锄禾日当午,效率低下。勤劳的意思是多干几个小时,收入可以多些。 现在很多行业其实要work smarter 而不是work harder。 多数脑力劳动,灵感很重要,没有想出办法,坐在办公室里一天也没有成效。 如果需要做重复简单的劳...
