- Submission to the Inquiry into the Digital Transformation for Workplaces
June 2024 | Submission
Dr Emmanuelle Walkowiak
This paper argues that Generative AI is the most transformational technology for our economy and society, particularly knowledge workers, as GenAI will transform how we generate various content. GenAI creates content that cannot be distinguished from human work, blurring the definition of work and raising new challenges for our society.
- Submission to the Inquiry into the Digital Transformation of Workplaces
June 2024 | Submission
Prof Paul Henman
The submission argues that digital technologies are not simply inserted ‘as is’ into organisations. Technology is enacted within a pre-existing workplace environment that includes long-standing organisational processes and practices, and information infrastructures. These organisational realities mould the form digital technologies take within a specific organisation and how they are used.
