Talk: "Aiming for the future" at Bangor University
I presented "Aiming for the Future" at Bangor University, exploring computing's evolution from the Difference Engine to the modern era, focusing on content/data delivery shifts. I proposed that Machine Learning, especially Generative AI, is the next major computing wave, akin to the Web's rise in the early 2000s, potentially mechanizing mental labor. The Student Expo showcased many final-year projects incorporating AI, from creative tools to practical problem-solving, indicating the growing importance of AI in various fields.
