Why should every career
bring their input on issues of security, privacy, and digital rights?
One of the main
taglines of Engineering
UK,
Royal
Academy of Engineering and The Global Grand Challenges Summit is to sensitize on the
changing careers and impact the coming generation on areas to venture and
places to focus their attention on to be more productive and relevant in the changing world as we look at the ways to sustain the 10 billion people by 2050.
Do you think that AI
and other transformational technologies will change humanity for the better?
Then why career
management, AI cuts across all sectors from those in engineering, ethical
based, humanities and medicine, and IT. AI will wash away certain careers while
on the other hand broaden and open new areas for the next generations to venture in.
I remember when I left
high school, my parents paid for a three-month course to go and study computer
packages just to be able to get a certificate. Nowadays, in the corporate
world, nobody looks for that. Everyone assumes it’s a basic skill that everyone
ought to have. That’s how constantly the world is revolving.
When such forums are
convened, it's prudent for all minds to come together so as to put their ideas
and opinion as we make the whole idea of AI successful and suitable for everyone.
David Brower once
coined, “Thinking Globally, Acting Locally.”
