MAILab Newsletter: AI From Labor to Work (Oct 28, 2024)




Artificial intelligence is not only transforming the relationship between humans and tools but also reshaping the connection between work and humanity. AI is first and foremost liberating humans from labor. Labor often involves physical, repetitive tasks that can sometimes directly endanger human life and health. With AI, humans can now stop engaging in these physically demanding, repetitive, and dangerous tasks. If paid work serves as a means for self-fulfillment, that’s ideal; however, when paid work feels unrelated to self-fulfillment, it becomes involuntary, and it would be preferable if such work occupies less time. The remaining time can be used to pursue activities, studies, or training that support personal fulfillment. This is the essence of labor liberation.


To those who might find this idealistic, consider that, for example, the AI-based urban micro-fulfillment service developed by MAILab allows workers to choose their work hours and location freely, while still providing substantial financial compensation and benefits. The latter is achievable thanks to high productivity, and the former is due to flexible working conditions. Moreover, individuals can enjoy independence from labor organizations. Instead of rigid professional specialization or division of labor, workers are free to choose how much time they want to invest in their tasks. Of course, developing fulfillment robots and AI technology demands a high level of expertise, but it does not solely require a division of labor.
