The "Uberfication" of Society

The "Uberfication" of society refers to the widespread shift where traditional services and employment are replaced or supplemented by technology-driven, gig economy platforms like Uber. This often involves using apps to connect consumers with independent workers for on-demand tasks, leading to flexible work arrangements but also affecting job stability, benefits, and regulations. It symbolizes a broader change toward digital marketplaces that prioritize convenience and cost-efficiency, impacting how people work, consume, and organize services in daily life.
