Conversations about the future of AI tend to be rather divisive, with opinions ranging from artificial superintelligence arriving to save the world, or to eradicate humanity. There's a sense that the latter is undesirable and that something ought to be done to prevent it. In order to get from that vague feeling to having steps that are practical in order to shape the future of AI, we can draw lessons from history. Looking back, to look ahead. Verity Harding is a globally recognised leader at the intersection of technology, politics and public policy. She is Founder of Formation Advisory Ltd, a bespoke technology consultancy firm, and Director of the AI & Geopolitics Project at Cambridge University's Bennett Institute for Public Policy. Her debut book ‘AI Needs You’ was published by Princeton University Press in March 2024. In the episode, Richie and Verity explore why history is important for the future of AI, the space race, the role of AI in society, historical analogies including comparisons of AI to the cold war, the evolution of the internet, IVF, the role of government and regulation, multi-stakeholder models and much more.

One thing we like to do on DataFramed is cover the current state of data & AI, and how it will change in the future. But sometimes to really understand the present and the future, we need to look into the past. We need to understand just exactly how data became so foundational to modern society and organizations, how previous paradigm shifts can help inform us about future ones, and how data & AI became powerful social forces within our lives. Cristina Alaimo is Assistant Professor (Research) of Digital Economy and Society at LUISS University, Rome. She co-wrote the book Data Rules, Reinventing the Market Economy with Jannis Kallinikos, Professor of Organization Studies and the CISCO Chair in Digital Transformation and Data Driven Innovation at LUISS University. The book offers a fascinating examination of the history and sociology of data. In the episode, Adel and Cristina explore the many of the themes covered in the book, from the first instance of where data was used, to how it became central for how organizations operate, to how usage of data introduced paradigm shifts in organizational structure, and much more.
