Data, like oil or minerals, is a vital resource. Who owns it is critical, especially as it fuels the Artificial Intelligence (AI) revolution. Sovereign AI goes far beyond countries merely owning their data. It focuses on control. It ensures that AI aligns with national cultural, ethical and legal frameworks. This approach guarantees that AI works for people and not the other way around.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is reshaping global power dynamics, economic frameworks, and security considerations. While it offers immense opportunities, it also raises significant concerns. These include governance, ethical standards, and its potential use in both civilian and military contexts.

Few business leaders dispute that artificial intelligence (AI) is on course to upend every major market sector and industry, but many boards aren’t always aware of what a successful AI strategy looks like, or how best to prepare their organisations for the change.

For jobs to be created, new industries need to be created and for that, you need people. A unique opportunity for job creation is emerging with the rise of artificial intelligence (AI), which is set to not only become a new growth area of its own but will also upend innumerable existing industries.

Each industrial revolution has caused disruption, but it doesn't necessarily mean a net loss of jobs. While automation and artificial intelligence (AI) can eliminate jobs and industries, they also create new ones. AI has already improved our lives, especially in the service industry, by increasing efficiency and giving us more free time for tasks like booking flights or ordering food. However, these improvements are somewhat superficial.

Emerging technologies like artificial intelligence (AI) are changing every industry and sector, including education. If students are to take advantage of AI, it’s essential they are exposed to it early and taught how to harness it. The changing educational landscape, accelerated by the pandemic, offers an opportunity to enhance inclusion and accessibility through AI technology.

The era of emerging technologies is changing everything in our lives. It’s changing the jobs landscape and how we work, but also how we interact with one another, how we are entertained, and how we learn. At the same time, businesses face changing customer expectations, and governments must contend with new demands from their citizenry.

Design thinking (DT) is transforming the way companies create value. But what is DT?

By 2030, Bloomberg expects artificial intelligence (AI) will account for as much as $15.7 trillion of the world economy. Of that figure, an estimated $6.6 trillion will come from businesses’ ability to be more efficient via automation and freeing their workforces to work on other tasks.
