In recent decades, there have been significant changes in the world of work also due to technological evolution. Increasing digitalization has opened up new opportunities, but it has also raised important issues regarding precariousness, workers' rights and the need for a universal income. To this end, it will be very useful to report on the analysis of Antonio Casilli, sociologist and author of the book (2019). En attendant les robots. Enquête sur le travail du clic [Waiting for Robots. An Inquiry Into Digital Labor]. Éditions du Seuil. ".

Digital labor and precarious work are significant issues in today's workforce due to technological advancements, leading to both opportunities and challenges.
Antonio Casilli, a sociologist, defines digital labor as precarious, poorly paid work reliant on data and managed through digital platforms, distinct from professions like computer engineering.
Three main categories of digital work include ondemand work (e.g., Uber drivers), platformbased work, and crowdsourcing, often characterized by low pay and precarious conditions.
Digital precariousness is marked by unstable employment, lack of job security, inconsistent wages, and a negative impact on workers' quality of life and economic stability.
Proposals like universal income aim to address these challenges by providing economic security to all citizens, enabling them to pursue sustainable job opportunities, while regulation is necessary to protect workers' rights and ensure fair pay in the digital landscape.
