Stelios, CEO of 1BusinessWorld, a New York based business and entrepreneurship community, asked Matthew to give the daily keynote at its week-long Leaders of the World summit, where entrepreneurs and investors from around the world met to share experiences and network.
The first keynote covered the Future of Artificial Intelligence: the trends, myths and technologies shaping it, from ANI, AGI and ASI to AIs made from DNA and Quantum AI. Matthew also discussed the Algorithmic Society, containment algorithms that could help control AI behaviour, what happens when AIs fight, and why 4 year olds still beat the world's most advanced AIs.
"When it comes to AI being able to create the next blockbuster movie, we're about 15 years away from that, but every day we inch closer."Matthew Griffin, United States, June 2021
The second, on DeepFakes and Synthetic Media, featured celebrities, Presidents and even zombies. Matthew showed that these media cut both ways: fun on one hand, but, as a Ronaldo clip showed, able to wipe billions off company share prices and spread disinformation at staggering speed and scale. AI creating the next blockbuster movie, he estimated, is about 15 years away.
The third keynote, on the Future of Communications, ran from 5G to 6G, fibre backhauls, high altitude platforms and LEO satellites that will help connect the next 4 billion people.
The week closed with the Future of Space. As launch costs plummet, space tourism and space hotels could soon be commercially viable, alongside plans by countries and billionaires to manufacture in space and colonise the Moon, Mars and beyond.
