What emerging technology or innovation do you think will have the most significant impact on the way we work or live in the next five years, and why?

A lot will be centered around AI. In addition, I believe e.g. that more intelligent vehicles will be moving forward. In the realm of Industry 4.0, many new technologies will become important in sectors such as the automotive industry, other manufacturing industries, the agricultural industry, and the energy sectors. As to why? The technologies will become available and bolster the competitiveness of the companies that apply those technologies, and this will encourage the application of the new technologies.

After AI, I think genetic modification will be the next big thing. The ability to let grow and every kind of structure we might need seems pretty useful to me. Plus the structure we grow can be self-healing and, if we don't give it a brain (and I don't see why we would do that) there is no moral question about that. But that still seems to be a few years of.

Definitely AI. In the AI era, every industry, all apps, and even cars deserve to be redone (of course, with safety as the top priority).

Hey Chiara, its Ai in Robots 😅😅

Only AI, perhaps the evolution of AI may come in the next 5 years, but only this technology has surprised the world.

Quantum Computers I think AI is a huge tech that is changing everything, but I think quantum computers will be bigger and just move us onto a different level of humanity. Hopefully in about 5 years they will have commercial ones in use, but it may be more like 10 years. Google's quantum computer ran a extreme complex task that even are best super-computers today would take 100K years to compute. The quantum did it in 10 minutes. Everything we have every seen from any computer system has been based on a linear based task processing system. We have gotten great at maxing that out through hyperthreading and combined distributed computing, but a Quantum computer has the ability to process hundreds if not thousands of tasks at the same time due to the qubit. In the most basic way of explaining it, we rely on a system of on/off states to do things, but imagine being able to be both on and off at the same time. It's crazy but I think a Quantum computer combined with AI.....its beyond imagination.

I'm kinda scared of AI tbh
