The race to real time in the age of AI – Linebreak Insights
In a compelling exploration of AI’s accelerating impact on business and society, Linebreak recently hosted a thought-provoking panel and roundtable event in London. Among the distinguished speakers was Professor Savvas Papagiannidis, Research Impact Director at the National Edge AI Hub and Professor at Newcastle University Business School.
Moderated by Ray Wang of Constellation Research, the panel featured Prof Papagiannidis alongside Dolo Miah from Linebreak, engaging a diverse audience of academics, researchers, and enterprise leaders from sectors including manufacturing, financial services, and insurance. The discussion tackled the urgent need for decentralised, real-time AI systems and the societal shifts required to keep pace with exponential technological change.
Prof Papagiannidis emphasized the critical role of education in preparing future generations for an AI-automated world, stating:
“Universities must evolve to equip the next generation with the skills needed to thrive in an AI-automated world. It’s not just about technical skills but raises broader social and ethical questions about how humans can thrive in this environment.”
The event underscored five key themes, including the exponential efficiency of AI, the risks of centralised systems, the need for edge-deployed intelligence, and the importance of human accountability in autonomous decision-making. The roundtable discussions brought forward a crucial academic and ethical perspective, aligning with the National Edge AI Hub’s commitment to fostering responsible and transformative AI innovation.
