What does our relationship with work actually mean? This was the central question explored on France 24’s The Debate, where DiPLab’s own Antonio Casilli, Professor of Sociology at Institut Polytechnique de Paris, joined a panel of experts to dissect the evolving landscape of work in an age of AI, gig economies, and generational upheaval. Professor Casilli brought his extensive research on digital labor and platform economies to the conversation, offering crucial context on how technology is reshaping not just what work we do, but how we think about work itself. The debate, facilitated by journalist François Picard, brought together diverse perspectives including Dipty Chander (President of E-mma), Benjamin Chaminade (CEO of Reboot-inc), and economist Gilles Saint-Paul. Alongside Casilli, they explored whether humans should still define themselves by how they earn their keep, and what we can expect as inequality grows and technology accelerates.
