The rapid growth of new AI systems like ChatGPT and Google Gemini have helped most people realize significant change is on the horizon. But while many people still think of these AI capabilities as improved internet search tools, the implications are far more profound. Just like the agricultural, industrial, and computer revolutions before it, the AI revolution will transform almost every aspect of our personal and professional lives. Along with our new capabilities in genetics and biotechnology, it will change how we live and work, our economies, our healthcare, the foods we eat, and our interactions with the world around us. Leading technology and healthcare futurist Jamie Metzl explores the big-picture implications of this transformative moment in our history—when we humans are rapidly increasing our abilities to engineer intelligence and re-engineer biology—and how individuals, organizations, and societies can best ride the wave of this change rather than be subsumed by it. A book signing will follow this speech.
