Is it possible that time is real, and that the laws of physics are not fixed? Lee Smolin, A C Grayling, Gillian Tett, and Bronwen Maddox explore the implications of such a profound re-think of the natural and social sciences, and consider how it might impact the way we think about surviving the future.

With the rise of AI, we’re abstracting complexity by embracing technologies that resonate with human intuition. Take ChatGPT, for instance. We can simply articulate our goals in plain English, and it generates code for provisioning the infrastructure accordingly.

Another approach is using visualization. For example, with Brainboard, you can draw your cloud infrastructure, and the necessary deployment and management code is automatically generated.

These examples illustrate the next-generation software and mindset. The shift is happening now, and the next set of tools will be adapted and optimized for humans.
