2101: Spark of Hope considers how AI plays a crucial role in what is likely to be an era of incredible change for humanity.


Machine housed learning is no longer seen as a mere tool to advance human intelligence. President Trump has announced the US government's commitment leading in advanced AI (under the banner of Stargate). This is indicative of how critical AI has become on a global stage.


AI in conjunction with quantum computing has potential to unlock completely new understandings of the universe at the sub-atomic level. Machine learning may progress at rates beyond human capability.

Advanced machine learning may also be the key to sustainably meeting humanities insatiable energy needs. AI is seen as critical for the control of fusion reactors.

As described in 2101: Spark of Hope, AI's role in communication poses the largest threat to humanity. People react to situations based upon their beliefs. Manipulation of information to create new beliefs is increasing and that can erode societal harmony. You get different answers to the question of whether climate change is real, depending on how you phrase the sentence.


With the all the noise in the world, I hope people take the time to consider the longer term consequences of decisions made as we have entered an era of great change.
