The development of automation, enabled by technologies, artificial intelligence, and Machine Intelligence is contributing towards productivity, and convenience. It is also having impact on jobs, skills, wages, and the nature of work. Workers are increasingly choosing to offer their services on digital platforms such as Upwork.
