We sat down with Anne McCormick, Digital Technology Policy Leader, Global Public Policy at EY, to talk about confidence and governance for the future of AI.


What's the future of AI?

The future of AI is full of potential but also uncertainty. This is not only because AI/GenAI and its applications are evolving fast, but also because AI’s future depends on how individuals and societies will choose to ‘govern’, as well as leverage, this powerful technology. What’s crucial for AI’s future is confidence: confidence in the technology itself, and societal confidence in the responsible way AI will be used.

We sat down with Sako Arts, CTO and Co-Founder at Fruitpunch AI, to talk about how he sees AI as a tool for climate action.


What's the future of AI?

While I'm not a strong believer that full-blown AGI is on the horizon we will see a continuation of AI taking over many white-collar jobs. Many, especially content-heavy, jobs will change significantly in that they will mostly be focused on using AI instead of creating the content manually, this will trigger a reduction in the required human capital overall. However, I expect other new jobs to appear, as we already see with prompt engineers and data labelers.

We sat down with Carlo Tortora Brayda, Co-Founder & Task Force Member, NAIC ISAO & Founder & Executive Chairman, Tortora Brayda Institute,  to talk about how he sees AI as a tool for climate action.


What's the future of AI?

AI for Good is my vision of the future of AI. I am forging forward with revolutionary technologies that will level the playing field and radically improve the economies of lesser developed countries.

We sat down with Michael Borrelli  to talk about how he sees AI as a tool for climate action.


What's the future of AI?

Trustworthy AI innovations underpinned by robust regulation.

We sat down with Raul Villamarin Rodriguez, Vice President at Woxen University to talk about how he sees AI as a tool for climate action.


What's the future of AI?

Imagine a world where AI personalizes education, tailors healthcare, and tackles climate change. AI is likely to become a ubiquitous partner, automating tasks, enhancing decision-making, and potentially even pushing the boundaries of creativity. However, ethical considerations and responsible development will be crucial.

We sat down with Ted Lechterman, Chairholder, UNESCO Chair in AI Ethics & Governance at IE School of Humanities to talk about the future of AI.

Ahead of World Summit AI Americas (24th-24th April 2024, Palais de congrès de Montréal, Montréal), we asked Ajinkya Malasane, Senior Director, AI Product Strategy at TELUS International, his thoughts on the future of AI.

If you could solve any global problem in the world with AI, what would it be and why?

Growing up in a developing yet ambitious country like India I believe I would like to solve the problem of knowledge and information asymmetry using AI in scientific research and technology at the grassroots. This will level up skillset for large population to then contribute their creativity and hard work for faster and bigger technological advancements for humanity as a whole.

Ahead of World Summit AI Americas (24th-24th April 2024, Palais de congrès de Montréal, Montréal), we asked Sasha Przybylski, Activator at The Knowledge Society (TKS), her thoughts on the future of AI.

If you could solve any global problem in the world with AI, what would it be and why?

I would want to solve the problem of battery waste. In particular, I think AI has a lot of potential for dynamic cell balancing within an EV battery pack. This can help to optimize battery function, and can also make second life batteries more feasible. The main issue right now is that the batteries degrade at different rates, and so we need really complicated algorithms to be able to use those batteries in a second life. I think AI can help with a lot of different BMS functionalities, which would serve to help us navigate the fine line between battery failure and maximum performance.

Ahead of World Summit AI Americas (24th-24th April 2024, Palais de congrès de Montréal, Montréal), we asked Fatih Nayebi, Vice President of Data & AI at ALDO Group, his thoughts on the future of AI.

If you could solve any global problem in the world with AI, what would it be and why?

I would focus on combating climate change. This is an urgent issue impacting every corner of the globe, threatening biodiversity, human health, and economic stability. AI can play a pivotal role here, especially through its ability to analyze vast datasets—more than any human team could manage. By using AI, we can better predict weather patterns, optimize energy consumption, and even develop new, more efficient materials for capturing carbon dioxide.

Ahead of World Summit AI Americas (24th-24th April 2024, Palais de congrès de Montréal, Montréal), we asked Raul Rodriguez, Vice President of Woxsen University, his thoughts on the future of AI.

If you could solve any global problem in the world with AI, what would it be and why?

While AI can be a powerful tool, complex problems like climate change require a multifaceted approach. I'd propose an AI-powered platform facilitating global collaboration. This platform could:

• Aggregate and analyze real-time environmental data: Track emissions, resource depletion, and weather patterns
• Facilitate communication and resource sharing: Connect scientists, policymakers, and businesses to develop sustainable solutions
• Model and predict environmental impacts: Simulate scenarios with different policies and interventions
