It would not be an overstatement to demarcate this decade as the Age of AI, considered a hype or monomania by some and the path towards singularity by others. Whichever may be the case, the purpose of this work is to set aside these mythical, tale-like futures and to focus on others, also tale-like, but definitely less bound to sci-fi tropes. This study aims to explore in an anthological manner the perceptions of young people (18-35) regarding the impact of AI on the world of work. It seeks to provide a broad and multifaceted view of work, highlighting differing perspectives among various schools of thought and analytical models, with a focus on the quality of work.
