Andy Hood talks about future technologies, and how our little understanding of consciousness does not allow us to replicate human consciousness in AI. Yet. However, the future in which machines are the main source of change is already upon us and in various fields, AI helps provoke massive new discoveries, for the benefit of mankind. Initiatives around the world aim to develop AI with a morality, as it is our own responsibility to make sure that the world created by machines is the best for all involved. Andy Hood is Head of Emerging Technologies at AKQA. He founded and leads the Creative Research & Development team, which specializes in rapid design and development of new digital products and services for clients, and in demonstrating how new technologies can be applied to solve business and consumer problems. Andy was featured in AdWeek as one of the ‘Top Ten Creative Minds’ in Digital and included in the BIMA 100 of 2016. He is regularly called upon by the press to offer expert commentary and presents at influential global events such as 2nd Screen Summit at CES, Dmexco, Mobile Convention and the Guardian’s Changing Advertising Summit. Andy has also been a member of the Cannes Lions Mobile jury. A sleeper TedX video that we recommend and only has 1,000 views.
