 Welcome back to the AI for good global summit in Geneva on day four. Now if there's a reason why we're here It's partly down to the man who's in front of me right now. His name is Steven Ibaraki. Hello. Hi If I say we're partly here because of you it's because you co-founded this whole summit to begin with your futurist And you're also a venture capitalist So you look at what's been achieved this week How much would you say the progression has been in the three years? Well, when you look at 2017 we had Approximately 30 plus million reach. We had 70 plus speakers 20 UN agencies at the second year We had a hundred and fifty speakers 1.3 billion media reach a hundred and fifty speakers and 35 projects as outcomes this year We had 30 over 3,000 registrations. We have 300 speakers We have all 37 UN agencies. It's incredible and I know the reach will be over two billion When you say the reach what do you mean by that just through the media pickup and the audiences that are Following the event through through all of the different UN channels and all of these stories that have been produced and so on I mean, it's the first year that we for example, we've had Microsoft as a keynote. We had the chairman of Seamans as a keynote as well, you know, like John Philippe from Microsoft and so on Incredible support. It's the only industry disciplinary AI summit that combines government industry Academy in media and UN agencies coming together to look at positive solutions for positive impact of AI Why would you say it's going through a rapid rise in three years is because people need to know more about AI They're concerned about it. You tell me People want to see the the actual Applications and how it can affect their lives in a meaningful way see how the augmentation can be used in both developed and developing countries And because the UN is a facilitation platform You provide a very neutral safe environment in terms of active discussions of what are the challenges But what also the opportunities and the meaningful solutions for example now There's over 200 use cases and how AI could be applied to address the 17 UN sustainable development goals There's three words that for me, I've heard a lot of this week that I didn't hear last year I would say it's gender inclusion and scaling up. Do I want to talk me through this? well AI is a is a Participation mechanisms so that it can help to provide equity and fairness and equality and gender or Gender neutrality in essence so that everybody can participate you have this situation of scaling up where AI is penetrative industry for example in the last quarter 2017 it was available to every aspect of our lives and increasingly it's even available in chips and so on so Both developed and developing countries have this capability of being augmented and supported through AI and any the other elements you're mentioning Another thing they talk about still is sharing the data lakes That's got to be the most difficult thing right because you've got to get businesses to agree to collaborate on data, which is power increasingly there are Programs for partnerships and so on and data commons to share data to make it available freely There's quite a bit of open source data now being available and not international consortiums to provide daily Data for free use and so on you can also create synthetic and synthetic data Where you get existing data and you can amplify and creating artificial versions of it So looking ahead Where do you see things say in the next three years from now? You're going to see it again an incredible proliferation of AI and ways that you don't even see right now A lot of people don't realize that AI is embedded into email It's a bit and to filter out you know spam emails and on credit card You know you get these messages saying somebody may be breaking into your kind of see that's AI a form of AI That's doing that when you want to purchase products on the internet. That's AI that says hey I should be looking at some other products or other movies every so do you know movies and or even in your car Where it's doing some of the functions automatically even though you don't have an autonomous vehicles That's all AI. It's embedded everywhere. And in fact, let's look at it this way when the first announcements came out about AI For example where they can recognize images and there was these computing clusters by Google and so on and you could You know have 20 30 million dollars of computers and millions of data sets data Points to image and recognize the end of popularity was cats My phone here has a bionic chip an 812 bionic chip. You're looking at $30 million. It's $72 and this system can do five Trillion operations per second That's the kind of the capability and you're gonna see that spread everywhere Increasingly so helping us live better lives Well check back in three years time and see you're the future oligists That was Stephen Iberaki who was basically the founder of this AI for good global summit talking to us Here in Geneva. Thank you. It's a real pleasure
