Bronwyn Williams & Theo Priestley | The Small Print
Advancing algorithms, big data feeding artificial intelligence, precipitous machine learning and science fiction being replaced by science fact — all of these are radically affecting how we do business. The genie is out of the bottle and there's no way to stuff it back in again.
In this episode, Bronwyn speaks to fellow futurist Theo Priestley about the growing relevance of AI. They discuss some of the risks of an overreliance on AI, how automation will primarily displace “bullshit jobs”, why AI is unlikely to usher in an era of fully automated luxury communism, and why UBI is not going to save us.
Bronwyn Williams is a futurist, economist, trend analyst and host of The Small Print. Her day job as a partner at Flux Trends involves helping business leaders to use foresight to design the future they want to live and work in. You may have seen her talking about Transhumanism or Tikok on Carte Blanche, or heard her talking about trends on 702 or CNBC Africa where she is a regular expert commentator. When she's not talking to brands and businesses about the future, you will probably find her curled up somewhere with a (preferably paperback) book. She tweets at @bronwynwilliams.
Theo Priestley is a globally recognised and sought-after futurist and international speaker, author, and authority on the future of business, technology and society focusing on the convergence of emerging trends, including Web3, Metaverse and Artificial Intelligence. He is widely known for his forthright views on the negative impacts of technology on society and currently works to inform political and business leaders of the risks and benefits of adoption. He recently authored the book, The Future Starts Now, published internationally through Bloomsbury.
