Complimenting the exhibition, Amy Karle will also be speaking at Innovative City Forum.
New advances in science and technology now have a significant influence on many aspects of our lives. In the near future, people may start to leave much of their everyday decision-making to artificial intelligence, which will then supersede human intelligence; potentially ushering in huge changes to our society and lifestyles. Another development, that of blockchain technology, looks set to build new levels of trust and value into our social systems, while advances in biotechnology will have a major impact on food, medicine, and the environment. It is also possible that one day, we humans will be able to extend our physical functions, and enjoy longer life spans. The effect of such changes may not be necessarily and universally positive, yet surely we need to at least acquire a vision of what life may look like in the next 20-30 years, and ponder the possibilities of that new world. Doing so will also spark fundamental questions about the nature of affluence and of being human, and what constitutes life.
This exhibition will contemplate – through the latest scientific and technological developments in fields such as artificial intelligence, biotechnology, robotics and augmented reality as well as art, design and architecture spawned by these advances – how human beings, their lives, and the environmental issues may look in the not-too-distant future.
