From VoxEU.org comes this audio in which Daron Acemoğlu is interviewed by Tim Phillips on the topic "Robots and jobs: Evidence from the US".
Concerns that industrial robots will replace human labour are widespread. Daron Acemoglu discusses how automation creates a displacement and a productivity effect. Furthermore, the effect of automation on employment heavily depends on the sector it is used in.
A link to the audio is available here.
