The incredible inventions of intuitive AI | Maurice Conti

The speaker introduces the concept of the Augmented Age where human capabilities will be enhanced by computational systems, robotics, and a digital nervous system, leading to a new era in human history.

Discussion on how technology is augmenting human cognition, from passive tools to generative tools that can synthesize designs independently.

Examples of generative design technology in real-world applications like Airbus planes and 3D-printed cabin partitions, showcasing how computers are generating solutions to complex problems.

Overview of the progress in AI development over the years, from basic games to complex strategic thinking in games like Go, indicating the transition from logical computing to intuitive decision-making.

Exploration of human-robot collaboration in tasks like construction, design problem-solving, and even autonomously manufacturing bridges, highlighting the synergy between human skills and robotics.

Discussion on the need for a digital nervous system connecting humans to the things they create, enabling feedback and insights for better design and user experience, and showcasing examples of applying digital nervous systems in automotive design.

Predictions on how the Augmented Age will transform society, emphasizing shifts towards farming over fabrication, connectivity, autonomy, and aggregation, leading to a more dynamic and complex world.
