Few topics have captured global attention in recent weeks like the statements of Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI. Altman is speaking openly about humanity standing on the threshold of what he calls the AI singularity — a point at which artificial intelligence surpasses human intellect across all domains and begins to autonomously improve itself.

A new study by researchers from Harvard, Wharton, and Procter & Gamble reveals: artificial intelligence is no longer just a tool – it’s becoming a true teammate. It boosts performance, bridges expertise gaps, and even motivates. Most impressively, AI-enhanced teams deliver top-tier results more frequently. The researchers' call to action: it’s time for organisations to rethink teamwork.

Technological progress is accelerating at an unprecedented rate. Artificial intelligence is revolutionising industries, biotechnology is reshaping medicine, and space is becoming an economic and geopolitical frontier. Yet innovation alone does not guarantee progress. The Stanford Emerging Technology Review 2025 provides a comprehensive analysis of the technologies that will define the coming decades and the policy decisions needed to harness their full potential.

Artificial intelligence is set to reshape the global job market, with the Future of Jobs Report 2025 from the World Economic Forum (WEF) forecasting a net increase of 78 million jobs by 2030. While 92 million positions are expected to be automated out of existence, the report predicts the creation of 170 million new roles as businesses adopt and integrate AI into their operations.

A new year has begun! As we step into 2024, a year poised to be marked by groundbreaking developments and transformative trends in technology, let's delve into five key trends. These trends not only broaden our understanding of technology but also have crucial implications for businesses and everyday work life.

The Gartner Hype Cycle for 2023 paints an intriguing picture in the realm of Artificial Intelligence, particularly focusing on Generative AI. This technology, dominating discussions and including systems like ChatGPT, is revolutionizing how developers and knowledge workers operate.

The new year has begun, and in 2023 we can once again expect a lot of new developments and innovations. Here are three trends that are likely to keep us busy in the coming months.

In times of technological development, man and machine move closer and closer together. One mega-trend that takes this development to the next level is transhumanism. But what is behind it?
