013 - LIVE from SXSW 2018 (The Best is Yet to Come, Digital Renaissance)
We've all heard the dystopian stories of AI destroying the world as we know it, but what if the best is yet to come? We believe there is an equally viable outcome for the future where humans are no longer burdened with menial tasks and are free to live life to the full and get creative, as was exhibited during the Renaissance in the 14th-17th century. Using this positive outlook as a lens, we will provide an analysis of the most important developments in technology over the last year.
