In this hard-hitting presentation at IBM's Tech Recognition event in Dubai, March 5 & 6, 2024, I discuss the critical importance of optimism about the future, not because we have fewer problems, but because our enhanced capabilities to solve them through technology AND the right policies and ethical frameworks.
I delve into the potential and perils of technological advancements like artificial intelligence, and biotechnology, underscoring the necessity of contemplating their ethical implications and societal impacts.
