Who ate my lunch? The AGI Foresight Report 2030 – six months on

Expect a lively conversation from an industry-leading panel, as opinions and expertise are shared and debated. Topics and statements up for discussion will include:

‘If GIS were good at scale, would there be a market for “more scalable” technology?’
‘Investing in technology is like buying a car, investing in data is like buying a house.’
‘There isn’t a huge amount that’s new in terms of problems. What’s new is in the solutions to those problems.’
‘AI isn’t this magical solution; it is actually a solution looking for a problem.’
‘Team geospatial must provide the guardrails, guidance and tools, to enable trust and collaboration.’

Finally, the panel, and audience, will explore concepts such as: ‘minimum viable data’ and the power of ‘personal software’, and, with the help of those present, look at what can be done to overcome the stark warning that: ‘The window for transformation is open, but it won’t remain so indefinitely.’
