The Provocateurs: AI & Economics / Forensic jewellery
Economists promised AI would boost productivity, raise wages, and create better jobs. So why are the numbers flat and wellbeing shaky? Dr Elena Papagiannaki (Edinburgh Napier University) cuts through hype, asks who benefits, and investigates whether today’s job losses are truly AI-caused, or conveniently “AI-washed.”
Follow the curious trail from jewellery to justice as you embark on a true-crime adventure with the world’s first ‘Forensic Jeweller’, Dr Maria Maclennan (The University of Edinburgh). All that glitters is not as it seems...
