The last in the series of the STEEP buckets.
I discuss:
As a shorthand, I look at technology through digital, engineering and bio/health
Quantum computers for simulations and materials science
AI as contributing to inequality
Extended Reality as the next area of computing platform
Looking at cancers as an annoyance
Management of chronic conditions
Future treatment of dementias
The varios -omics - genomics, epigenomics, transcriptomes, proteomics...
Nuclear fusion as part of the energy system
DARPA - as contributing to innovations in the past - GPS, the Internet, and more recently, driverless cars, mRNA vaccines, Boston Dynamics' robots.
Marianna Mazzucato - the state as the lead player in creating innovations.
I would have loved to cover synthetic biology, but maybe next time.
