AI systems are advancing faster than expected and the next few years could redefine what we mean by intelligence. Will progress continue through scale alone, or are new breakthroughs in algorithms, data and agentic interaction needed to reshape the path ahead?

As models begin to learn, plan and act in digital and physical environments, what kind of intelligence are we creating and how will it shape humanity?

From DNA research that unlocked the biotechnology sector to fibre optics and digital imaging that enabled today’s networked society, fundamental discoveries have shaped industry and society alike. Yet public research and development commitments have stalled globally for the first time in two decades.

How can we reinvigorate a growth model that treats science not as a cost but as a strategic engine for prosperity?

How to lead forces for peace, with Cheryl Pearce | UN ‘Awake at Night’ podcast teaser

Source: United Nations (video statements)

After enlisting at 18, Cheryl Pearce battled rigid gender barriers to rise through the military ranks. Now the UN’s Acting Military Adviser for Peacekeeping Operations, the Australian-born Lieutenant General is the highest ranking woman in uniform within the United Nations.

“Peace for me, is seeing communities having food security, having water security, education, knowing, you know, as a mum myself, knowing that my children can grow up to feel like that. They can have a life and a future and fulfill their dreams and goals.”

Lieutenant General Pearce knows what it takes to serve in some of the most difficult places on earth, from East Timor to Afghanistan. In this episode, she reflects on the sources of her mental and physical resilience, on making a robust case for peacekeeping in an age of disinformation, and shares why her family wants her to show her chaotic side once in a while.
