ETHIC.life™

Innovation, Ethics and Artificial Intelligence Keynote Presentation

The landscape of contemporary industry has changed forever. We are living in a new world where the tectonic plates of culture are shifting faster than we can keep up.

The New Economy: Digital Distance Age

We have moved from the industrial age to the information age, and now are entering the post-knowledge age. Acceleration at a breakneck pace is the new normal. Some are calling this the age of machine learning, autonomous systems, artificial intelligence, Internet of Things, Blockchain economy, robotics, and mobile commerce.

The Future of Work

McKinsey Global Institute estimates that by 2030 close to 30% of occupations in the U.S. will be automated. There will be a massive impact, dislocation, and job creation as a result of these technologies. Uncertainty over the future creates anxiety and insecurity. But embedded in the unknown are incredible opportunities for a  flourishing life and society.

ETHIC™  Answers the 2 Big Questions

• In our pursuit of innovation using advanced technologies, how can we create and commercialize, yet do it in an ethical way and that builds trust?
• How can we strengthen our brand, position ourselves strategically for the future, and do it in a way that helps human beings flourish?
