A Robot Walks Into the Office...

Join Nathan Wallace for a thought-provoking exploration of what happens when humanoid robots step off the factory floor and into the spaces where we work, interact, and build our livelihoods. With a Unitree G1 humanoid robot live on stage, this talk moves beyond the headlines to ask the questions that really matter - where does automation genuinely help, where does it threaten, and who decides? From ethical replacements to economic anxiety, from the jobs we should hand over to machines, to the ones that must stay human, this is an honest, optimistic conversation about how we shape the future of work before it shapes us.
