Whiplash: How to Survive Our Faster Future

Clouds could have a greater cooling effect on the planet than climate models currently suggest, according to new research. As highlighted in the annotations, half of the experts gave a date before 2061, and 90% gave a date within the next 100 years. What if a starship could compress space in front of it while expanding spacetime behind it? “Star Trek” took this idea and named it the warp drive. In Issac Asimov’s Foundation series, humanity can travel from planet to planet, star to star or across the universe using jump drives. As a kid, I read as many of those stories as I could get my hands on. I am now a theoretical physicist and study nanotechnology, but I am still fascinated by the ways humanity could one day travel in space.

There is a general awareness that all types of organizations need to accelerate innovation with rapid experimentation, but this awareness must now be put into practice. We are seeing the “acceleration of acceleration.” It’s something like driving along and suddenly being caught in the middle of a sandstorm. Though our first impulse might be to hit the brakes to survive, we must instead step on the accelerator pedal and move faster. Artificial intelligence (AI) that surpasses our own intelligence sounds like the stuff from science-fiction books or films. What do experts in the field of AI research think about such scenarios? Do they dismiss these ideas as fantasy, or are they taking such prospects seriously? The technology could be applied to more than just clothing too, it could be integrated into the pavement, so when people constantly walk over it, it can store electricitywhich can then be used to power streelamps, or in a car's tyre so it can power a car.

The full automation of labor group was asked: “Say an occupation becomes fully automatable when unaided machines can accomplish it better and more cheaply than human workers. Ignore aspects of occupations for which being a human is intrinsically advantageous, e.g., being accepted as a jury member. Think feasibility, not adoption. Say we have reached ‘full automation of labor’ when all occupations are fully automatable. That is, when for any occupation, machines could be built to carry out the task better and more cheaply than human workers.” This question was asked under both the fixed-probability and fixed-years framings. The study by Zhang et al. published in 2022 Faster Future helps clients understand future technology and trends more clearly. We provide leadership education and training, vision development, and technology research and insights. Faster Future supports your organization by building alongside you to make those critical changes. In recent years, the impact of AI in healthcare has been remarkable. AI has become a powerful force in drug discovery with its ability to recognize patterns and make predictions from massive amounts of data. Healthcare professionals are looking to AI-enabled tools to help identify drugs to combat COVID-19 that could be tested on prospects within months, not years.

In similar surveys (e.g., Zhang et al. 2022; Grace et al. 2018), the researchers compared the group of respondents with a randomly selected, similarly sized group of non-respondents to see if they differed on measurable demographic characteristics, such as where they were educated, their gender, how many citations they had, years in the field, etc.

Schneider tells Carbon Brief that the paper highlights data sources that can be “exploited fruitfully” for future studies. He adds: Marcus Folino/Chalmers University of Technology Structural batteries could lead to superlight electric vehicles Max Roser (2023) - “AI timelines: What do experts in artificial intelligence expect for the future?” Published online at OurWorldInData.org.
