Artificial intelligence is transforming the way we live, work and do business. But as its capabilities advance at extraordinary speed, how can we ensure that the future it creates is one we actually want?
Join Mo Gawdat, former Chief Business Officer of Google X, four-time international bestselling author and one of the world's leading voices on AI, for a thought-provoking keynote exploring the relationship between human and artificial intelligence.
Drawing on more than three decades of experience in technology and business, Mo will examine the impact of AI on organisations and society, the challenges of keeping pace with technological change, and the responsibility we all share in shaping what comes next.
As the worlds of technology, creativity and human experience become increasingly interconnected, this keynote brings the ISE 2027 theme When Worlds Unite into sharp focus. Expect fresh perspectives on how businesses can respond to AI's rapid evolution, why human choices matter more than ever, and how we can harness its potential to create a better future.
With a career spanning over three decades, Mo brings a wealth of experience from prestige companies such as IBM, Microsoft and Google, as well as co-founding more than 30 businesses throughout his career.
He is also a four-time international bestselling author, with a core focus on happiness, artificial intelligence and the future of humanity. His first published title, the bestselling Solve for Happy: Engineer Your Path to Joy, developed an algorithm that models how our minds encounter the world and process joy and sadness. It also sparked his global mission to make one billion people happy.
