Did you know that cashless and contactless transactions increased by over 30% during 2020-2021? More than a third of consumers report that they never use cash to make purchases. As Artificial Intelligence (AI) and other technologies improve, their effects on society include shifting how people all over the world buy and sell goods and services. However, the seemingly simple shift to automation and digitization raises complex ethical questions of how consumers will be affected. In this book, author Brian Asingia explores how technology and ethics will coexist in an increasingly cashless future, considering questions such as:How will more than 1.7 billion "e;unbanked"e; consumers adapt to a cashless society?What are the benefits and challenges of going cashless, and how can an ethical cashless society address challenges?How does the anonymity of cryptocurrency level the playing field for consumers of different socioeconomic backgrounds?How can tech creators ensure that AI is as unbiased as possible?In Cashless Society 101: A Practical (Values to Action) Guide to Ethical Leadership and Inclusive Innovation, author Brian Asingia takes an in-depth look at these critical issues, and explores how an increasingly cashless world may transform our global society.ABOUT THE AUTHOR, ASINGIAAfter beginning his career on Wall Street, Brian Asingia branched out to work in the intersection between technology, finance, business, and the arts.
