It is so nice to have a speech like that when he is probably employed full time with all benefits. Most of the people are forced into gig economy. I would dare to say more than 50% according to data In my country. Yes, giggers like flexibility and no security because they are young! But when you wish to settle and think about something else than job it starts to become a problem. He is optimistic about something that is only capital driven! And he is from Scandinavia where people have a different social security behind their backs. . I wish I could see him deliver my pizza through Wolt app. I wish I could see him paying low pension benefits and I wish I could see him not having enough money to have a good health insurance. And i would like to see having such a flexible job and so free that he would work any day, not being able to form good relationships as he would be so free that he would get swallowed by amazing gig economy. In order to rethink work we don’t need gig economy!
How do you think businesses get started? Who do you think creates those large multi-million dollar corporations that have enough funding to hire that many employees and give them healthcare benefits? Bezos didn't create Amazon because he was working for someone else. He had the capital to invest in his own idea, what began as his own gig. If we want to stop being swallowed by these multi-billion dollar corporations, we *do* need a gig economy, for people to venture out on their own and invest in their own ideas.
Winners = .1% Losers = 99.9% In Pollyanna Economics, this translates as "some winners and some losers." You're so lucky to live in an economy where you can be an Uber driver, an Amazon warehouse worker, and an ameture economist, all at the same time! ...or is that just the wonderful picture you would like to paint for all the rest of us chumps?
At what point do we allow markets to simply exist and grow without the burden of biased government bureaucratic intervention. Keep your grubby leech hands off of the economy!

You think so?

Ted just finds any place and then has a speaker agree to come
Instead of watching this video, please watch Why the gig economy is a scam? also from Ted Talks.
Smart and creative perspective on the emerging Gig economy.
I'm the world's leading gigger. Great video
Wassup m'Gigga
Tester 316278 there are very little comments on this video and I think that’s because everyone is sleeping on this one
Not much... Sup withya... ?
"we are giggers" XD
Finally the ted talk I have been looking for: the one that says i can be a human centipede in just 3 easy steps
This guy is speaking as if gig economy is a good thing...
There's literally no such thing as "Job security". I know people who had jobs from 5-35 years and all of a sudden got layed off.
If u got the same job for 35 years I'd consider that pretty stable
It's called a union
@@Najebanski Stable until you get that pink slip..lol
Keep your grubby leach hands off the economy😂😂😂
