100% satisfaction guaranteed was indeed delivered at this year’s DLD Conference. The theme was “Dare to Know” and Steffi Czerny, Alessia Sinzger, Heiko Schlott, Sabrina Fuessel, and the DLD Team delivered! From elements of #AI, #music, chess, books and art to healthcare, global politics, #Africa, #space and beyond, here are some of the highlights: McKinsey Global Institute’s Michael Chui spoke of the US$2.6-4.4 trillion profit potential in AI with concentrations in the following sectors: sales and marketing, software, development where you will see a double-digit increases in productivity, operations, and R&D in LLMs: https://lnkd.in/giZWYvap Apolitical’s Lisa Witter giving us three panels with AI & Democracy at the forefront of many minds as pivotal elections take place 2024: https://lnkd.in/ggkszrcR Gary Marcus sharing his insights of his research and work defining what kind of AI world do we want. The one we want is an AI world that begins with human rights and human dignity. https://lnkd.in/gSuMPW8Z #Africa’s presence had several slots in an emerging growth market that will be on par with growth we haven’t seen yet. It’s great to see Afrobeats and music on the agenda as well as a highlight having national chess champion of Nigeria Tunde Onakoya play! https://lnkd.in/gj3WU9qb The EU still debates their place in the global competitive marketplace and ecosystem when it comes to advanced deep technologies including AI, semiconductors, cybersecurity and data privacy. As colleagues in the space industry discussed on stage, collaboration will be the key in unlocking economic growth as we move forward and finding the right partnerships in the west versus the east and it is not in siloed or narrow thinking but rather finding those collaboration with economic trade partners in a space economy. In #KeepingPACE with the upcoming NASA - National Aeronautics and Space Administration (Plankton Aerosol Cloud ocean Ecosystem) mission launch from Kennedy Space Center in Cape Canaveral next month with launch provider SpaceX, Europe is very much in the mix on this mission with the SPEXOne polarimeter. More on that later. Jacob Helberg and DLD Co-Chairman Yossi Vardi closed #DLD24 with a discussion about the rapid deterioration of the global security climate. With tidal waves of disinformation on the internet combined with concerns that AI fundamentally changes political and military warfare towards grey zone conflicts that have increased the past few years. The major concern of AI in a warfare context response times will decrease dramatically. The winner or loser will be determined by who can make decisions faster against adversarial threats. https://lnkd.in/gVDPHeDB Thank you to Bill Gross and Martin Puchner for generously sharing their slides. A planetary thank you to Steffi and Yossi for the kind invitation to join you again!

A couple of weeks ago, Mario Draghi minced no words when he called for a profound refocusing of Europe’s collective efforts in advanced #technologies. Before the new #EU cycle starts in earnest, the time has come to select actionable projects of impact. In the field of #AI, a number of approaches has been proposed in recent years, as thoroughly reviewed by Andrea Renda: https://lnkd.in/efiRbXXF. However, the one idea which can make a real difference is #CERN for AI, a hub-like structure to pool resources across the continent, similarly to how CERN model works for physics research. The approach has been endorsed by Ursula von der Leyen in her Political Guidelines for 2024-2029. As my colleague Max Reddel explains, “CERN for AI should be understood not just as an ambitious tech project, but a crucial step to secure Europe’s economic future, safeguard its security and geopolitical standing, and steer the trajectory of AI development towards more trustworthy and ethically aligned systems.” The International Center for Future Generations - ICFG has published an excellent review of #CERN4AI authored by Max Reddel, Daan Juijn, Alexander Petropoulos and Bálint Pataki: https://lnkd.in/evEfsyAy. This week, we had an occasion to discuss the concept with an impressive group of experts at a Round Table hosted by The International Center for Future Generations - ICFG. What emerged is first of all the need to clarify the approach to agenda-setting. Although areas of application of AI vary widely, being citizen-focused would be particularly important, given the significant price-tag #CERN4AI would entail. One example where AI can make a real difference is #personalisedmedicine, making life-cycle approach scale widely, with individualised recommendations, from prevention to diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation. Bringing #CERN4AI about will require a lot of institutional #innovation. Just as the original CERN is run by 24 Member States, the leadership, engagement and the financial resources of a number of EU capitals will be crucial. However, #CERN4AI can be an umbrella term for numerous initiatives, partly funded from the EU budget, via public-private partnerships, or funds with private manager structure, modelled after NATO Innovation Fund (NIF). The moment of truth on funding is coming as soon as new EU cycle starts.

This presentation is a must for anyone looking to start using AI effectively and ethically. For organizations already starting with AI, this is an opportunity to learn how to extract the maximum value from AI projects. #infocon2024 #AI #ig

"In roughly a century, humans unlocked how to reach the skies in powered flight, and then extended that reach to the stars, landing humans on the moon and flinging unmanned systems to beyond the edge of our solar system. We are boldly exploring not just the celestial space our ancestors could only look upwards at, but we have established a virtual domain that is equally as infinite yet entirely of our own human design. Cyberspace is unique in that it must exist through a scaffolding that starts in the physical world where time and space are explicit and tangible. However, the human experience of cyberspace extends our consciousness beyond the limits of our bodies and the physical planes we exist within normally. There is no ‘space’ in cyberspace, at least not in how humans previously conceptualised the geographical certainty of the time-space continuum that is the real world. Cyberspace in terms of warfare is additionally unique in that in the physical domains (air, land, sea and space) adversaries must operate within the physically defined limits imposed by reality. Cyberspace occupies a strange hybrid status where physical laws establish certain parameters, yet the virtual world rejects other laws found in these tangible domains and permits greater cognitive and social interface with users in ways that require entirely dissimilar methods and theories, to include that of war.[2] Cyberspace if anything acts as an extension of the abstract plane of human conceptualisation that previously could only function in our imaginations, where we might dream of fantastic, impossible things that break the laws of physics, or otherwise could never occur chemically, biologically or in any possible material form. Cyberspace provides a new plane of human experience that exists atop the physical reality that humans themselves exist within. Cyberspace is also distinct in that it extends into realms where humans intentionally can explore ideas and conduct activities that are impossible in the real world yet produce direct effects that extend back into that same reality. We can innovate in extraordinary ways within virtual realities of our own design, including how war itself is understood across a multi-domain conflict where human belief systems and meaning manifest in physical and virtual contexts..."

"The World Ahead in 2024" 👉 The Economist has identified 5 important stories to track in 2024. 1️⃣ Elections in Taiwan and the U.S.: More than half of the world will vote in 2024, but two elections stand out as the most important. Taiwan is a geopolitical flashpoint and the stakes are very high in January's elections as it could determine if an invasion by China will be delayed or hastened. The political dysfunction in the U.S. will also be a huge uncertainty for how the U.S. will approach China/Taiwan relations and the Ukraine and Middle East wars. 2️⃣ eVTOL: "Electric Vehicle Take-Off & Landing": Supersized drones that run on batteries making them a sustainable way to fly and transport passengers. Watch out for them in the Paris Olympics in July! 3️⃣ AI Rules: The focus on #artificialintelligence will not be on what it can do but on how humans might control it. Much of the focus on regulation has been around the frontier models but this may be misplaced. The potential of AI to have real life impact in education and healthcare is huge but the immediate risks involve bias and discrimination. 4️⃣ Industry Cleans up: One of the world's overlooked #greenhousegas emitters will be on the spotlight. So far, the focus has been on cleaning up the most visible polluters like energy and transport. The focus is now turning to industry and the production of materials central to our everyday life. Industry and electricity generation are each responsible for 29% of global greenhouse gas emissions. Coolbrook, a Finnish startup, is developing technology for tomorrow's green industry. Their rotodynamic heater can generate high temperatures using electricity. 5️⃣ BRICS: The BRICS acronym stands for "Brazil-Russia-India-China-South Africa". The goal of the bloc is to challenge the U.S.-centric world order. The talk of #dedollarization has been going on for many years. How successful the bloc will be will depend on how these countries with different political systems and national goals will be able to coordinate and get along. #geopolitics #evtol #ai #greenhousegasemissions #brics
