Will Artificial Intelligence Shape Our Future?

Toby Mossop

editor at Chartwell Speakers

We live in a world of constant technological development and advancement, where innovation and new technologies will change our lifestyles, our working practices and our future. The development of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in particular, is set to re-shape the global economic and social landscape.

Exponential growth in the power of technology means that the machines we will have in ten years time, will be well over 100 times more powerful than the ones we have today. In thirty years time, those machines will be over 1 million times more powerful than today. That growth will continue and with it, will come amazing new capabilities and developments.

Exactly what consequences this will have for humanity, are hard to say. Clearly there will be hugely positive developments, but questions exist around ethics and where it will leave us as humans.
