In addition, computer game manufacturers are launching new gaming platforms, educational institutions are altering their approach to traditional teaching and manufacturing companies are now performing maintenance of complex production equipment using VR and AR technology. Blockchain A blockchain is a distributed transactional database in which all the parties are always in possession of the same information about the transactions.
It is not possible to change information in the database unless the majority of participants agree that the change complies with the rules defined for a transaction to be approved. A blockchain therefore makes it possible to carry out transactions securely between multiple parties without the need for the transaction to be verified by a third party such as a bank. Blockchains establish trust between the parties in a network who will be interacting.
It is not known when blockchains will have a serious impact on the business world, but there is little doubt that the technology has the potential to play a central role in relation to value creation and innovation. Today, blockchain is mostly associated with cryptocurrency, allowing you to transfer monetary values between parties, but the applications and opportunities are considered to be enormous within sectors such as consumer products, property, logistics, health, energy and insurance.
Despite the enormous possibilities, the technology currently has relatively few well-documented examples of users. Deloitte Investors invested more than USD million in blockchain start-ups in and McKinsey 3D printing 3D printing is a digitally-operated manufacturing technology in which physical objects are printed by a 3D printer based on the specification of a digital 3D model. The manufacturing process is additive, which means that an object is produced layer by layer rather than milling or turning a larger object down to the desired shape.
Production using a 3D printer is carried out by allowing an object to be printed in successive horizontal layers of materials such as plastic or metal until the object has been fully produced. Each of these layers can be viewed as a thinly cut horizontal cross-section of the object being produced. Moreover, 3D printing can reduce the need to store parts as well as significantly reduce lead times, since the technology makes it possible to produce what you need, when you need it and where you need it.
The healthcare sector is also using 3D printing to produce artificial organs such as hearts, teeth, skin and ears. Gartner One in four global companies are exploring the potential of 3D printing. EY Drones A drone is an unmanned aircraft that can fly or dive autonomously using software or be remotely controlled by people. For example, drones can be used for searching, surveillance and transportation.
Several Norwegian companies are contributing on the front line in the development and commercialisation of drone technology, and the Norwegian Government has drawn up its own drone strategy to establish good framework conditions for the use of drones and growth in the drone sector. Businesses are investing in drone technology in order to explore how the technology is contributing to increased efficiency in operational processes, as well as access to new and improved data.
Several Norwegian and international retail and logistics companies are already exploring how drones can contribute to faster and more cost-effective distribution. Furthermore, a number of companies working in the oil and gas, energy and industrial production sectors are using drones to monitor and efficiently gather critical data from infrastructure such as refineries and power line networks. We can save USD 50 million by using drones instead of vehicles to perform the final kilometres of their deliveries.
UPS There are currently some 4, registered operators of aerial drones in Norway. Robotics and automation Automation of physical work duties is a growing trend within several sectors. This means that physical robots and machines are increasingly taking over work duties previously carried out by human employees. At present, this development has come furthest within processes associated with warehousing, logistics and surveillance, but it is also moving into a number of other sectors.
Physical automation of work processes improves quality and increases uptime in processes, while freeing up human resources to work with other tasks that add value. Tasks that are currently performed by employees are only carried out during agreed working hours and often with considerable variation as regards quality. One is significantly better medical technology related to cancer and other major diseases. The second is significantly reduced cost of health care.
The third is much higher and broader availability of high-quality health care, thereby reducing the differences in outcomes between wealthy and poor citizens. Fifty years ago, computers were the size of walk-in closets, and the notion of personal computers was laughable to most people. And, as nearly always happens, the technology is far ahead of our understanding of the human implications.
Will these technologies be available to all, or just to a privileged class? What happens to the data? What happens to it after death? What are the ethical and for some, religious and spiritual implications of changing the human body with technology? In many ways, these are not new questions. But the key here will be to focus as much or more on the way we use these technologies as we do on inventing them.
Life-saving drugs, genetic medicine, effective talk therapy, better recommender systems will all serve individuals in a satisfying way. I am concerned, however, that these will create increased dependency and passivity. We already have trends toward better-behaved, less-experimental and less-sexually-active youth. Our homes, transportation, appliances, communication devices and even our clothes will be constantly communicating as part of a digital network.
We have enough pieces of this today that we can somewhat imagine what it will be like. Through our clothes, doctors can monitor in real time our vital signs, metabolic condition and markers relevant to specific diseases. Parents will have real-time information about young children. The difference in the future will be the constant sharing of information, data updates and responses of all these interconnected devices.
The things we create will interact with us to protect us. Our notions of privacy and even liability will be redefined. Lowering the cost and increasing the effectiveness of health care will require sharing information about how our bodies are functioning. Those who opt out may have to accept palliative hospice care over active treatment. Not keeping track of children real-time may be considered a form of child neglect. Digital will do more than connect our things to each other — it will invade our bodies.
Advances in prosthetics, replacement organs and implants will turn our bodies into digital devices. In health, the pervasiveness of powerful algorithms embedded in mobile tech doing things like monitoring our vitals and cross-referencing with our genetic information, will mean longer and healthier lives and the disappearance of many diseases.
Similarly, AI embedded in devices or wearables can be applied to predict and ameliorate many mental health illnesses. However, there is potential for there to be huge inequalities in our societies in the ability of individuals to access such technologies, causing both social disruption and new causes for mental health diseases, such as depression and anxiety.
On balance, I am an optimist about the ability of human beings to adjust and develop new ethical norms for dealing with such issues. Surveillance technology, especially that powered by AI algorithms, is becoming more powerful and all-present than ever before. Medical technology, technology to help people with disabilities, technology that will increase our comfort and abilities as humans will continue to appear and develop. The AI will analyze those data in order to provide personalized medicine solutions.
At this pace, and, taking into account the developments in digital technologies, I hope that several discoveries will reduce the risk of death, such as cancer or even death by road accident. For example, the unification of villages through electric engines in subways has created what we know as Paris, London, Moscow and Manhattan. Another area AI can have impact is in creating the framework within genomics, epigenomics and metabolomics can be used to keep people healthy and to intervene when we start to deviate from health.
Indeed, with AI we may be able to hack the brain and other secreting cells so that we can auto-generate lifesaving medicines, block unwanted biological processes e. The benefits of the internet in the health care industry have continued to improve access to care and services, particularly for elderly, disabled or rural citizens.
Digital tools will continue to be integrated into daily life to help the most vulnerable and isolated who need services, care and support. With laws supporting these groups, benefits in these areas will continue and expand to include behavioral health and resources for this group and for others. In the area of behavioral health in particular, digital tools will provide far-reaching benefits to citizens who need services but do not access them directly in person.
Access to behavioral health will increase significantly in the next 50 years as a result of more enhanced and widely available digital tools made available to practitioners for delivering care to vulnerable populations, and by minimizing the stigma of accessing this type of care in person.
It is a more affordable, personalized and continuous way of providing this type of care that is also more likely to attain adherence. This will be a natural evolution of adopting the logic of our tools and adjusting our lives accordingly. Pathways to digital life will be neural pathways inside our bodies and brains. We will eat our technology. What is now external mediated through devices will become neural, mediated through neural triggers along neural pathways.
Having gone and living inside us, the merger with our tools and devices will continue to accelerate due to advances in machine learning. Human identity will morph into an open question, an ongoing discussion. In my estimation, within the next 50 years the internet will mainly become the platform for brain-to-brain communication, i.
A lot more content will be generated automatically, by AI systems that help us fill in the holes in our knowledge and make it more easily accessible. Connectivity will become ever more ethereal and divorced from devices. Speeds will have exceeded what can any longer be sensed by the human organism. Storage will seem limitless, as it will exceed all possible need. Most connectivity will be integrated into the biological organism.
It will enable good people to do more good. It will enable lazy people to be more lazy. It will enable bad people to do more bad. It will enable family and social people to be closer and more loving. It will enable lonely and isolated people to become more isolated.
It will enable radical advances in all things people do — sports, arts, medicine, science, literature, nature exploration, etc. I can see people allowing implants in their bodies so they can connect to whatever the internet becomes — leveraging it as an auxiliary brain. This also, however, opens the door for manipulation and potential control of people. Like anything, technology can be used for good or evil. Much will be dependent on to what extent an individual is willing to sacrifice independence for comfort, security, etc.
A law professor based at a U. The European Western paradigm of the free and autonomous individual will no longer be a major cultural force. There will be no other life than digital life and no one will really have the opportunity to live offline. And if so, then there will probably be a three-class society consisting of the cyborgs, the hybrids and the naturals. This will of course generate new forms of social inequality and conflict.
The options available will be contingent on many layers of both technology and human adaption that will occur over the next 50 years. Genetic engineering combined with nano components that may also be bioelectronic in nature will allow planetary network communication with implants or, perhaps, full neural lace.
The primary distinction will be between those people with full communication plus memory and sensor augmentation versus those who choose not to use artificial components in their bodies. Everyone will use a planetwide network for all communication and process activity whether through augmentation or very small headbands or other options that are not implanted.
This kind of thought-based communication will become ubiquitous through always-on, omnipresent networks. Personal devices will fade away as direct connectivity becomes ubiquitous. Such will be the state of augmented memory. This will further empower people, by the power of their purchases and choice-to-use to set standards of acceptability and preference. All these materials, and the things built with them will participate in the connected world.
So far all the trends lead to it; it is hard to imagine a future in which this does not happen. They say remote work arrangements are likely to be the rule, rather than the exception, and virtual assistants will handle many of the mundane and unpleasant tasks currently performed by humans.
Imagine that the tough, hard work, dangerous jobs are done by machines guided by computers and AI. We can see the prototype of these in how the U. Garbage could be picked up, sorted, recycled, all by robots with AI. Humans could live well on a hour work week with many weeks of paid vacation.
This positive outcome is possible if we collectively manage the creation and distribution of the tools and access to the use of new emerging tools. Our cognitive mediators will know us in some ways better than we know ourselves. Better episodic memories and large numbers of digital workers will allow expanded entrepreneurship, lifelong learning and focus on transformation. Furthermore, deep learning and AI-assisted technologies for software development and verification, combined with more abstract primitives for executing software in the cloud, will enable even those not trained as software engineers to precisely describe and solve complex problems.
I strongly suspect there will be other, unpredictable disruptive social changes analogous to the freer movement of capital enabled by cryptocurrencies in the last decade. AI systems can provide universal access to sophisticated adaptive testing and exercises to discover the unique strengths of each student and to help each student amplify his or her strengths. AI systems could support continuous learning for students of all ages and abilities. Information that was once accessed through print materials that were not available to everyone and often out of date is now much more readily available to many more people.
Ensuring access is another huge issue with internet 2. Access to these tools is not guaranteed even within the U. In many cases, access to current technology in developing areas of the world allows populations to skip expensive intermediate steps and use tools in a way that improves their quality of life. Ensuring that people all over the world have access to tools that can improve their lives is an important social justice issue.
The disruption of that will play through to the way people identify themselves and can also be turned into political movements. AI is on the point of eliminating a wide variety of jobs and professions taxi driver, accountant, law clerk, etc. At the same time a large portion of our identity often comes from an idealized sense of our work. Witness the notion of being a cowboy. This is a real job for a small number of people, but it is an identity for many.
In the same way, there is an identity in being a truck driver, an insurance adjuster, etc. If that is taken away from people it can, in the worst case, lead to populist political movements. I answered that the general trend will be positive, but I expect that it is not a simple path to better lives through the application of IT.
There are many social and eventually political issues that will be played out. Convergence of virtual reality and immersive devices will modify the rules determining how we interact with each other and with knowledge and information in the future. We will need to be conscious of the distinction between game and play, to allow for leisure time away from rule-bound game-as-the-new-work. This will be particularly necessary for environmental issues to be solved creatively.
Coding literacy will become part of K curricula to prepare citizens for both STEM-related careers and consumer-oriented DIY solutions of tech problems. Already acquainted with basic and intermediate home maintenance of basic lighting, plumbing and painting, the handyman 2. The handyman 2. For those unable or uninterested in being a handyman 2.
This industry — with public and private certifications — will employ hundreds of thousands of laborers and enjoy revenues in the billions. Done right, it will expand opportunity for many, too. The internet will mostly be used to enhance communication, coordination and collaboration. This was somewhat true for the majority, but dramatically untrue for many minorities.
We may have the opportunity to provide this societal benevolence for everyone in our society. The technological, often digital, tools we are creating have the promise of greatly increasing the resources available in society.
While it may be possible to automate some current jobs, people have an intrinsic need for meaningful work. If we can use these new resources to support them, many jobs can be created to provide meaningful work for many people, and to improve the environment for everyone in society.
Some examples of such jobs are child and elder care, and creation and maintenance of green spaces ranging from urban parks to rural farms to wilderness environments and many others. A national service requirement for young people gets certain kinds of work done, but also provides training in practical skills and practical responsibility, and also exposes individuals to the diversity of our society.
Technological change produces resources that allow new things to be done and reduces certain constraints on what can be done. But we need to learn which goals we should pursue. Whether individual members of such groups feel their lives have been improved or made worse will vary depending on many factors.
Suffice it to say that public support of some kind to give displaced workers the means to live in relative security and comfort is essential. Moreover, this support must be provided in a way that preserves self-respect and promotes optimism and ambition. A world of former workers who perceive themselves as having been prematurely retired while machines provide the goods and services they once supplied seems to me highly unstable.
To be happy, or at least contented, people need a purpose beyond simply amusing themselves and passing time pleasantly. One of the major functions of the internet in may be to facilitate contact between people with skills who want to work and jobs that still need doing in spite of high-tech robots and ubiquitous AI.
Diseases will be cured with machine learning, profits will rise with automation and artists, engineers and scientists will be able to do more with less time and resources than ever before. Will society take steps to adapt its social standards? Will education adapt to prepare each generation for the reality ahead rather than focusing on the past? That depends on politics. If wealth concentration is accelerated by automation, the average person could be worse off.
Digital technology will be used to counter some of the stresses created by economic development and a digital culture. Digital avatars, for example, might provide intelligent company for the old and lonely, coaching those subject to psychological disorders, encouraging and guiding the sedentary to adopt healthier lifestyles, and so on. But changes and societal stresses brought by digital technologies may require a fundamental overhaul of the social contract.
A new digital social contract will likely be needed, the specifics of which we cannot be sure now, but the contours of which we see suggested today in proposals ranging from universal basic income to institutionally mandated time free from digital distraction. The hope is that political processes allow our social arrangements to adjust at a pace commensurate with broader technological change, and that dysfunction in political processes is not aggravated by digital technologies.
It has been commented that when humankind attempts to take astronauts to Mars the primary challenge will not be technological. Instead, it will be social: namely, the ability of unrelated individuals to live in close confinement for long periods of time. At the level of entire polities, in a similar way, our primary challenge may be living together in civil ways, attending to the full range of human needs, while the technology brings opportunities to carry us forward, or carry us off course.
What will it mean to not have to remember, that you can recall the video with higher fidelity than one could ever remember? This will disrupt social norms. Communities specified by degrees of anonymity and other variable social norms. AI and IT information technology can define, enforce and update norms at scale and quickly…. Non-locality of communities. We already see this today with the various groups — mailing lists, conference calls, website, hashtags, etc.
This might impact happiness; if everyone physically around you is a stranger not in one of your communities , what will that mean for the physiological aspects of happiness — touch, smell, tastes, complex sounds and sights? At a technical level, the RF radio frequency signature of [an] individual will become increasingly important as the wired last mile disappears. There will be secure vote-by-internet capabilities, through credit card or passport verification, with other secure kiosks available at public facilities police stations, libraries, fire stations and post offices, should those continue to exist in their current form.
There will be a movement online to require real-name verification to comment on more reputable sites; however, this will skew participation tremendously toward men, and the requirements will be reversed after a woman is assaulted or killed based on what she typed in a public-interest discussion. This has profound psychological implications about what people assume as normal and establishes baseline expectations for access, response times and personalization of functions and information.
Contrary to many concerns, as technology becomes more sophisticated, it will ultimately support the primary human drives of social connectedness and agency. As we have seen with social media, first adoption is noncritical — it is a shiny penny for exploration. Then people start making judgments about the value-add based on their own goals and technology companies adapt by designing for more value to the user — we see that now in privacy settings and the concerns about information quality….
Expecting it to be better means we look for the strengths and what works and work toward that goal. Technology gives individuals more control — a fundamental human need and a prerequisite to participatory citizenship and collective agency. The danger is that we are so distracted by technology that we forget that digital life is an extension of the offline world and demands the same critical, moral and ethical thinking.
Only the very poor who cannot afford technology and the very rich who can choose to separate themselves from it will be free from connectedness. When I consider the current AI conversation, I often think the real evolution of sentient beings will be a hybrid connectedness between human and machine.
Our very existence and day-to-day experience will be through an augmented experience that features faster thinking and more ethereal pleasures. This brings a question of what is human? Since most of us will be living in a machine-enhanced world, the perspective of human reality will always be in doubt.
Most will simply move through their existence without a thought, able to change and alter it with new software packages and algorithms, accepting their reality as the new normal.
