How Artificial Intelligence Will Change Business and People in the Coming Decade
Adrian Wooldridge, Jim Golden, Josh Harris, Matthew McKnight, Vivienne Ming, Michael Reitblat
This panel addressed the $1.3 trillion global impact of financial crime, arguing that Intelligence Augmentation (IA) frameworks combining human intuition with AI processing offer a superior defense against adversarial automated fraud. Case studies from Palantir and healthcare innovators demonstrated that non-technical workers can achieve dramatic efficiency gains through AI tools, while experts warned that displacing the professional middle class could trigger social instability and deepen inequality. The discussion concluded with a strategic call to shift from labor arbitrage to machine arbitrage and to reform education toward adaptability to mitigate the ethical risks of cognitive stratification.

A Glance through the Global Trade Window: Like the View?
Adrian Wooldridge, Ailish Campbell, Ian Goldin, William Lee, Rhonda Schmidtlein, David Walker
Panelists including Eilish Campbell, Bill Lee, Rhonda Smichline, and Ian Goldin examined the Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement's role in establishing a template for future deals while debating how globalization's uneven economic impacts fuel political populism. The discussion highlighted that while trade has driven global wealth, its benefits were not adequately redistributed to domestic losers, leading experts to reject Universal Basic Income in favor of policies prioritizing labor mobility and adaptable education systems. Furthermore, the group analyzed the risks of protectionism and financial instability, concluding that prudent regulatory frameworks and open data flows remain essential for maintaining economic resilience against emerging technological disruptions.
