When will I have access to the lectures and assignments?

You can try a Free Trial instead, or apply for Financial Aid. The course may offer 'Full Course, No Certificate' instead. This option lets you see all course materials, submit required assessments, and get a final grade. This also means that you will not be able to purchase a Certificate experience.

Module details

Welcome to the course! In this module, we will begin with an overview of this third course in the Navigating Disruption series, Generative AI Integration: Effects on Labor and Workforce.

In this module, we begin by considering the traditional value and work of white-collar jobs. Through understanding the value and outputs of white-collar jobs, we will then evaluate the ways in which AI will destabilize previously "safe" jobs. Armed with these evaluations, we'll ponder the question: are knowledge workers replaceable, and if so, what would the look like?

In this final module, we'll examine the changing dynamics in the workplace that must be re-evaluated with the adoption of AI. We'll review AI policies from a variety of industries, and utilize these as the inspiration for drafting our own AI policies. You'll close this course by sharing your AI policy with your peers, and then by considering what the past tells us about our present reliance on and use of AI in our workplaces.
