Supporting research that expands opportunity in the AI-driven economy.

The Opportunity

Artificial intelligence is transforming how work is performed across industries. While much of the current conversation focuses on automation and job displacement, technological transitions historically create new roles, industries, and economic structures. SilkVerse studies how emerging technologies reshape workflows and identifies new human roles that can best leverage evolving tools.

Societal Impact

Drive initiatives that ensure AI’s benefits are translated into equitable and sustainable opportunities across the future of work.
