Story
This is what our future looks like: in the next decade, AI will be able to convince us that it’s human. During the 2030s, it will become ‘superintelligent’, vastly outstripping our capabilities by almost every measure. By 2045, it will be possible to connect our brains with these AIs using invisibly small nanotechnologies. Our minds and theirs will merge, expanding our consciousness more profoundly than we can fully comprehend, unlocking possibilities we can barely imagine. This is the singularity.

Story
"Artificial intelligence" or "AI" is one of the hottest buzzwords of the last decade. And with the release of the AI language bot "ChatGPT" in 2022, the buzz around AI has only grown louder. Ask around and you’ll often hear something rather unbelievable, from “AI will be the end of humanity as we know it!” to “AI will make everything better; you’ll never have to do anything again!”But isn’t there some sort of practical middle ground, free of hysteria?

Story
Welcome to the economy of algorithms. It’s here and it’s growing. In the past few years, we have been flooded with examples of impressive technology. Algorithms have been around for hundreds of years, but they have only recently begun to ‘escape’ our understanding. When algorithms perform certain tasks, they’re not just as good as us, they’re becoming infinitely better, and, at the same time, massively more surprising. We are so impressed by what they can do that we give them a lot of agency. But because they are so hard to comprehend, this leads to all kinds of unintended consequences.
