Agentic AI: Why the Future of Autonomy Must Answer to Ethics
Behind every click, swipe, or nudge from your phone’s feed or your doctor’s diagnostic tool, something is making decisions, fast, quietly and without a human in the loop. That “something” is what researchers are calling Agentic AI: artificial intelligence systems that act with a degree of autonomy.
Navigating the Future of AI
AI capabilities have surged by an average of 20% annually. Yet, as these systems grow more sophisticated, so do the risk; unpredictable “hallucinations,” ethical quandaries, and safety gaps threaten to undermine trust.
Beyond Silicon: Reimagining Computation
Silicon has powered innovation for decades, but it’s nearing its limits in performance and efficiency.
There are great strides being made in photonic (light) computing, and this has a vital place in the networks that join the data processing together. But what about the processing function at the nodes themselves?
Reimagining Our World
Climate change, technological disparities and socio-economic inequalities are shaping our present and defining our future. The question is how we can reimagine our world to create a future that is equitable, resilient, and sustainable.
