In this episode of The Z-X Spectrum, we consider this BIG question: Do you think 2045 could be one long gap year?
Focus: The podcast covers issues like Universal Basic Income, purpose, education, government and equality.
About: It is a recording of a special ThinkNation and Economic Singularity Club event where we explored Artificial Intelligence and the future of work.
The event was a collaboration between Calum Chace and Ed Charvet from the ESC and supported by ThinkNation. Calum is a columnist, author and speaker on artificial intelligence. Ed is Chief Strategy Officer at Logicalis. He also chaired the discussion.
The panel discussion was made up of young people - including Brandon from this podcast - and industry thought leaders.
The focus of the discussion and subsequent audience workshops was to explore the possibility that by 2045, machines will have become so capable that they will have replaced humans in pretty much all of the work that we do now. If that does happen, what might the ripple effect be? What will the positives or negatives in this scenario?
After the panel debate, members of the audience were divided into workgroups where they collaborated and considered their responses to the question: “Do you think 2045 could be one long gap year?”
They developed a consensus within their group, and formulated a two-minute address, delivered by a representative or a few representatives of that group.
Panelists:
Lois Shearing: Content Marketing Graduate for one of Atlassain's Platinum solution partners, Adaptavist. Rob O'Connor: Amazon Alexa development, Accenture Arohi Jain: Head of Research at The Future Society Kieran Cranston: Youth worker and on Fixup Seminars' Grad2Greatness programme Alison Collington: Project Manager for Fiver and Tenner Challenges, Young Enterprise Brandon Relph: One of the UK's leading entrepreneurs and co-host of The Z-X Spectrum.------
Lizzie Hodgson, co-presenter of The Z-X Spectrum and director of ThinkNation, designed and ran the workshop.
