Protecting AI So AI Can Improve The World, Safely
Cisco News, Wednesday, January 15th, 2025
The world is in the middle of an unprecedented era of artificial intelligence innovation. Looking ahead, there will be two types of companies: those who will lead on AI and those that risk irrelevance.
For the organizations who take AI seriously, the composition of their workforce is about to change dramatically.
Today, their workforce is entirely human. Tomorrow, it will expand exponentially to include a variety of AI workers-including apps, agents, robots, and even humanoids. We'll be living in a world where connected AI agents and people work together to orchestrate all manner of complex workflows. And I believe it will translate into massive gains in productivity and capacity, with considerable shared benefits.
Imagine what a human population of 8 billion people can accomplish if we collectively have the capacity of 80 billion.
The question, though, is how can we make this transition safely and securely?
