The Politics Of Automation

We are also privileged to have Assemblyman Clyde Vanel of New York State's Assembly join our discussion on the deployment of autonomous systems, AI, the future of organized labor, universal basic income, and more. Assembly member Vanel is recognized as one of the most tech savvy legislators in Albany with his proposed legislation on AI, Blockchain and Cybersecurity. BIOS: Andrew Yang is an entrepreneur and author running for President as a Democrat in 2020. In 2011 he founded Venture for America, a national entrepreneurship fellowship, and spent the last 6 years creating jobs in cities like Cleveland, Detroit, Baltimore, and Pittsburgh. When Andrew realized that new technology like artificial intelligence threatened to eliminate one-third of all American jobs, he knew he had to do something.
