ENSafrica recently hosted a webinar on a legal perspective on
emerging technologies, in case you missed it, here's our
roundup.
As we are all too aware, COVID-19 expedited a number of changes
that were already starting to take place, and nowhere is this more
evident that in the ICT space. The 4th Industrial Revolution
("4IR") is a fusion of advances in
artificial intelligence ("AI"),
robotics, the Internet of Things
("IoT"), genetic engineering, quantum
computing, and more.
The consumer economy has been innovating on two fronts: making
physical buying as "frictionless" as possible, and making
e-commerce as nimble as possible. COVID-19 broke old habits and
sped up that evolution. This grand experiment in remote work and
distributed teams will have an impact on office life as we know it,
potentially reshaping the entire "office
economy".
