Nearly six months have passed since I was given the wonderful opportunity to be part of the first ComplexitySalon, and I've found myself constantly returning to the ideas sparked in those rooms.

In a turbulent world, those with greater ability to influence often chose to push the burden of uncertainty onto those who are already more marginalised. The greater and more visible this inequality in society the more likely it is that groups who feel underrepresented become anxious and more susceptible to simplistic solutions.

AI brings huge potential for greater innovation and prosperity, and at the same time may cause radical instabilities in the way we organise our societies. No technological development is solely good, and becoming dependent on algorithms is bound to challenge what we think it means to be human. This was an opportunity to explore the everyday implications of AI in the workplace alongside hopes and fears.
