Hannah's 1984 - A 10 Year Look Into a (Possible) Future

Remember Per Damgard Hustad, the AI expert we interviewed before Chat GPT took the spotlight?

He foresaw a world where AI multiplies global wealth tenfold...urging us to redefine our values beyond careers!

And in today’s episode, we're diving into uncharted territory...

Imagine George Orwell's 1984, but with a Gen Z twist!

Join me as I take a peek and look at 10 years ahead, chatting with Chat GPT about what could be in store for us....

We'll explore the phases that could shape the next 10 years...

maybe we'll look back in a few years at how accurate my predictions are...

So, buckle up your seat because today's episode is like no other! 🔥

Phase I: Turbulence (Present – 2025ish)

I've named phase one 'Turbulence,' because the changes coming our way are both exciting and nerve-wracking, and humans will have to figure out how to adapt to AI.

From job displacements to economic disruptions, the effects maybe widespread.

As I always say, 'Change is inevitable, and it's up to us to adapt and thrive.'

The integration of AI will create a diverse landscape, with some embracing the positive displacement of mundane tasks, while others may worry about job losses.

It's a challenging phase for all, but one that carries immense potential for growth and creativity.

Phase II: The Digital Renaissance (2026 – 2030)

After navigating through the turbulent debates on AI's impact on jobs and potential government interventions, I’ll call the second phase of our AI journey A New Renaissance.

During this phase, the spotlight turns to humanity's distinct strengths, with creativity, emotional intelligence, and innovation taking center stage.

"Lifelong learning becomes essential as individuals seek continuous education and exploration of new domains."

A world where AI works tirelessly behind the scenes, affording us ample time to indulge in creative endeavors and innovative pursuits.

A future where our true value lies not in job titles, but in our ability to unleash creativity, empathy, and originality like never before.

"I could see us returning to a world where people pursue higher learning simply because they want to. They could go study and get a major or a master's or a doctorate in poetry, not for the expectation of a job, but simply for the joy of studying it, enjoying it, and discussing it." - Hannah

Imagine a renaissance where the pursuit of knowledge is driven purely by passion, unburdened by the pressures of employment.

As AI gracefully assumes specialized technical roles, humanity will have the opportunity to focus on building a better, more connected physical world.

Additionally, this renaissance promises a revival of spirituality—an opportunity for us to reconnect with our core values and rediscover our purpose.

Irrespective of religious beliefs, a thirst for deeper meaning will propel us to embrace our humanity and seek higher truths in an age that celebrates creativity over consumerism.

Phase III: Augmented Coexisted (2030 and beyond)

Picture a world where AI and humans work in harmony, where ethical considerations are addressed, and collaboration becomes second nature.

In this phase, we'll have mastered AI integration, and the pendulum of uncertainty will finally find stability. I call this third phase "Augmented Coexistence."

"Augmented coexistence will revolutionize the way we collaborate, creating a harmonious bond between AI and humanity." - Hannah

Now, the impact on society and the economy during this phase is nothing short of fascinating.

I believe in this phase, we’ll see the rise of a Universal Basic Income (UBI) – to keep people out of the way of innovation. But unlike what we’re hearing right now, where governments are managing it, I believe private companies will step in, keeping innovation on track without relying on government intervention.

However, the reality may differ, and government driven UBI is a possibility we should prepare for. In any case, UBI may be the new norm in our economic system.

Every college student graduating into this era will need to adapt, as the jobs of today will seem antiquated compared to the opportunities of tomorrow.

Compensation models will also undergo a radical transformation.

Outcome-based and value-driven payment structures will replace traditional hourly or salary-based systems.

AI's wealth generation maybe unprecedented, shifting our perception of currency and prosperity.

"The rise of AI will birth a new economy where value, creativity, and innovation take precedence over outdated compensation models." - Hannah

We will see an upsurge in social initiatives aiming to leave a positive mark on the world.
