TECHNOLOGICAL SUPERCONVERGENCE
ADAPTING TO EVER-FASTER CHANGE
- One of the reasons that this is such a pivotal time in history is because of the rate of progress of increasingly-powerful and ever-more-consequential technologies.
- Artificial Intelligence, being applied to ever-more data, is changing the very nature of society. Advances in genetics & biotechnology gives us the power to change living organisms, or even create new life.
- The power of these technologies increases as computing & data processing power increases, and as we get ever more connected. Technology is accelerating itself - we call this the Superconvergence.
- We need to work together to understand the implications of new technologies, and to shape their development and uses to the best ends possible.
- This is ultimately a global discussion, but one which we must also have - and drive - at a national level, both to learn and adapt, and to play our part in building a better future, in relation to technology.
- We need to build awareness and engagement; so, please share this idea, page & platform on Social Media. Promote it locally in your community. Tell your employer, school, colleagues, friends. Shout it loud!
- And other than that - just dive in, let's see what we can do, together. To begin, connect with the the community (see the Community button, below). Let’s get started!
