Artificial intelligence is not merely Star Wars-like humanoids.
You have probably communicated with a customer service bot without thinking about it, and you have read an article on an editorial web site that’s machine-written, but you didn’t notice.
AI is forecast to fundamentally change how we work.
"People whose job it is to listen to other people and satisfy them will pretty soon be out of work due to automation", as MIT robotics professor Andrew McAfee says.
The most visible sign is robots replacing human beings, doing their job. Sometimes better than people. And cheaper.
Beyond the hype, and beyond fear-mongering:
What are we starting by pressing the button?
Is the fear of an AI workforce reasonable – and the hopes exaggerated?

We love to indulge in cool, hyped-up tech startups.
However, the Nordic countries wouldn’t endure without its basic industry: the forestry, mining, ore, and steel sectors form essential parts of their economy.
But even wood and commodities go digital – improving efficiency and productivity. How do you make a mine digital? How do you maximize value? And how will the human brain co-work with computers at their best?

We all love our smart phones – and there’s no way to manage work without them.
But could our digital usage be too much?
The number of reports of smartphone addictions increases every year, and the “digital detox” industry flourishes accordingly.
How could we find balance between digital and unplugged life? Or is the notion of balance something that will go out of style when we have adopted technology to the fullest?

Internet of Things, connecting physical devices to us and to each other, is considered at a ”peak of inflated expectations”.
Even though Google Home or Amazon Alexa let us control our calendar and command the Internet with the voice, much remains to be done – both on the consumer market and for industrial use.
What is to expect? What are the takeaways from recent IoT projects? And how could connectivity everywhere, all the time, affect us?

Malware – ransomware, viruses, trojans and other security breaches – are a nuisance.
The famous Wannacry ransomware attack in spring/summer 2017 cost at least four billion US dollars. Certain studies show that money exchanged in connection mount up to as much as a half per cent of the total world economy.
And ultimately, it is individuals, and small and medium businesses, that are targeted.
What is to expect 2018? What responsibility should an employee take? And who is the hacker – beyond the myths?

Implementing artificial intelligence, machine learning and deep learning in health care would have huge benefits in our era of aging populations and tight NHS balance sheets. This is a massive hype, fueled by a Silicon Valley investment bonanza.
But remember the 2017 popular catchphrase "AI of today can beat you in chess but it won’t know if the room is on fire". Challenges in development, as well as drawbacks in the much anticipated IBM Watson Health platform, makes the world wonder: Where are we in this? How will AI assist the physician? And when will a truly digital experience change my primary care experience?

Digitalization forces us to change our way of working.
Agile methods form the leading paradigm in product development right now – but is of use in marketing and human resources as well.
The agile philosophy, as opposed to the old waterfall paradigm, outlines an open-end process. You produce smaller features of the larger end product, test it on users – and then go back, refine and revive. Instead of working for a long time to reach a large goal, you get more releases by working in a co-creative environment.
But what are the drawbacks? When should I use agile methods? What is demanded from my colleagues and employees? And is this as new as all the buzzwords imply?

Soon, you will be able to.
AI, artificial intelligence, is on everyone’s lips and attracts huge investments. It is projected to influence almost all aspects of our life – even death!

Remember Petya? In a ransomware attack, your computer is hi-jacked and infected with a virus – but the perpetrator gives you the opportunity to get your PC back if you pay, for instance 3,000 bitcoins.
This is only one of many types of digital crimes.
But how do you handcuff a digital villain?
The police faces huge challenges. The cost for cybercrimes globally were 450 billion dollars in 2016.
And they are difficult to solve – without any fingerprints, no DNA, and often no witnesses.
