For centuries philosophers have wrestled with a deceptively simple question: “What exactly is the mind?” Is it a non-physical phenomenon generated by the brain, or something more abstract—perhaps even something separate from the body altogether? We must embrace philosophy when developing superintelligent machines to establish a theoretical platform that helps us understand the problem we’re trying to solve. Smart as Humans In recent years this philosophical debate has transit

Let’s face it—artificial intelligence remains a misunderstood subject. Across the consumer, business, and industry sectors, many people are still unsure about its role, purpose, and capabilities. Questions persist: Will AI take our jobs? Could society one day be dominated by autonomous machines? Might we even confront debates about “robot rights”? While such concerns make for compelling headlines, the reality is rather less dramatic. True superintelligent humanoids remain fir

Generative AI (or GenAI) has reimagined and challenged our thinking as to how we create original content, much to the dismay of the human artist. Nonetheless, GenAI has strengthened the potential to turn the traditional arts, media and entertainment sectors on its head and, as such, may become our new inspiration. From writing, design, coding and music to manipulating or creating video content, artificial intelligence is ready to take on a leading role and provide a technolog

The 5G rollout across the UK is a two-phase strategy, namely, non-standalone and standalone. The initial phase, that is, non-standalone 5G relies upon the existing 4G infrastructure where mobile operators can leverage pseudo-5G connectivity to consumers while Ofcom  purports that around 90% or so of British premises may experience outdoor coverage from at least one operator. The second phase standalone 5G (or 5G SA) is a longer-term strategy requiring dedicated equipment enab

The winter is fast approaching, and weather forecasters are predicting that the temperature is likely to drop to zero and below. So, we can look forward to wrapping up in our winter woollies and turning up the heating a tad, to ease the chill. Yet, there’s another kind of wintry breeze gently brushing against industry. Our frosty winter seems to be extended to the future of artificial intelligence, where some are becoming increasingly nervous about its future. Cautious About

In this episode of INNOV-8 Presents: Entrepreneurs in Tech, host Bob Shami sits down with Dr Dean Anthony Gratton, author, technologist, and expert on artificial intelligence and emerging technologies. Together, they unpack the truth behind the AI hype—separating science from speculation—and explore the ethical and societal implications of creating intelligent machines.   Dr Gratton shares insights from his upcoming book on superintelligence, offering a grounded look at where
