You've likely heard of the GS Expo by now. It has become a sort of obligatory event for any rising business in the software industry, especially software companies that have reached some level of notoriety. And why not? What company doesn't want to future proof itself? This conference will be held virtually via video conference in February of 2023.
The GS Conference panel on machine learning and AI: Discussion is sure to include topics such as progress in AI and machine learning and where they are headed in the near future. Companies that currently use machine learning technology in their products will discuss how it has benefited them by empowering their human workforce, increasing efficiency, and helping to save time and money over time. Other companies may hone in on health care or vulnerable populations using similar technologies for assistance with various tasks such as driving vehicles or administering medication safely. The main focus of this discussion will be bridging the gap between humans and intelligent machines in order to benefit everyone.
There will be a discussion about the future of the metaverse and virtual realities, including topics surrounding social experiences in virtual reality versus augmented reality. Although it is still considered experimental, AR has seen much more use around the world compared with VR. This leads us to wonder whether or not immersive virtual experiences will ever reach mainstream adoption, especially when you consider how much time most people spend on their phones. On the other hand, devices like HoloLens are already beginning to influence how architects design buildings and companies make advertisements. Sooner or later this technology will reach consumers in some form or another, but what that form looks like may surprise you.
Blockchain technology is also expected to come up during this panel. With security being the number one priority in all software matters, blockchain is viewed by many as a way to secure sensitive data. Although current applications of this technology are mostly used to secure cryptocurrencies, there are numerous uses for it outside the digital world. As an example, let's turn our attention to physical storage devices that handle valuable information such as birth certificates or social security cards. The list goes on and on, but the point remains the same: Blockchain has potential far beyond simply securing virtual currencies.
Other technologies include insights into new advancements in robotics and automation for both consumers and businesses alike. Some experts are predicting half of all jobs will be automated by 2027 .

With that in mind, we believe there will be a lot of talk about the future of work as well as possible solutions to keep up with these developments. Although it may seem like automation is hurting employment overall, research shows otherwise. Despite what you might have heard on the news lately, unemployment rates are actually down, not up since neo-automation took hold several years ago. The new trend, for better or worse depending on who you ask, requires humans to have more skills involving higher cognitive functions versus being able to complete repetitive tasks quickly. Also of interest might be discussion about UBI (Universal Basic Income), which is sure to come up in the future when jobs start disappearing for good.
