Future challenges in technology
Greg Adamson
Ross House, 247 Flinders Lane, Melbourne (Victoria)
5pm Sunday 1 March 2015

Over the past 30 years the technical community has developed an
increasingly sophisticated understanding of the impact of
technology on society. Global climate change, the importance of
humanitarian technologies, technology for development, privacy and
security, and the importance of ethics are all now accepted as part of the
technology challenge. Is our job done? In this talk, Dr Greg Adamson
(University of Melbourne), President of the IEEE’s Society on Social
Implications of Technology, will speak about three important challenges
for the next 20 to 50 years: the future of work; autonomous warfare; and,
human-machine boundaries.
