The robots are coming. Will they replace us?

CyberWork and the American Dream is a film about the history of technology and the future of work.

This documentary looks at the impact of robotics and artificial intelligence on the future of work. Since the Industrial Revolution, new technology has increased wealth, freedom and life expectancy. But it has also destroyed outdated businesses and automated jobs. How can the U.S. best prepare for the challenges of this new technological disruption?

Join us for a special screening on Tuesday, May 7th at 5PM in the Hauck Auditorium at the Hoover Institution.

The screening will be followed by a panel discussion featuring:

Astro Teller, Captain of Moonshots, X
Sid Espinosa, Microsoft (Former Mayor, Palo Alto)
John Cochrane, Hoover Senior Fellow
James Shelley, Filmmaker
Aron Tesfai, Stanford Senior Class President

The discussion will be moderated by Hoover Senior Fellow, Elizabeth Cobbs.
