Isabot: Investing in a post-labour future

A chatbot that helps you to invest your money in order to speed up the automation of your own job. #Re-designing Infrastructures

Ottonie von Roeder wonders about the obsolescence of human labour, our participation in technological progress, why the abolition of labour can give us more freedom to work and how targeted financial investment could accelerate a post-labour future. She presents the process and output of her collaboration project with Baltan Laboratories and the Eindhoven-based accountancy firm Joanknecht – a chatbot that helps you to decide how to invest your money in order to speed up the automation of your own job. You can have a chat with it at this link: isabot.pythonanywhere.com
