IT Pro 20/20: Understanding our complicated relationship with AI
The 16th issue of IT Pro 20/20 looks at the very human problems associated with artificial intelligence

Welcome to issue 16 of IT Pro 20/20.
This time we look at our strained, confusing, and often contentious relationship with artificial intelligence, and how that is shaping development.
We’ve addressed some of the more concerning issues surrounding the eager rollout of the technology, including whether AI has the potential to make us lazy, and whether it will make spying on employees a simple matter of flicking a switch.
It’s not all artificial intelligence, though. As a special bonus, we’ve also spoken to some of the leading figures behind Lithuania’s campaign to become Europe’s fintech capital - ousting the UK in the process.
The next IT Pro 20/20 will be available on 31 May – previous issues can be found here. If you would like to receive each issue in your inbox as they release, you can subscribe to our mailing list here.
