Trusting the Algorithm: How AI Will Curate Your Future Relationships and Ethical Choices.

I've spent the last few months immersed in the challenges and opportunities of AI, thinking a lot about what the future holds and understanding the real-world implications of a technology that's going to change how we live and work. Some thoughts:

The role of AI in social fabric

AI won't be a mere tool; it will serve as an architect for our personal and professional lives. New networks will emerge that leverage sophisticated algorithms to curate high-value relationships tailored specifically to your needs.

Going beyond connections to craft careers

This won't be just "networking." These platforms will offer guidance and mentorship, connecting you with individuals and opportunities that align closely with your ambitions. Your career trajectory could be significantly influenced by the algorithms that power these platforms. In fact, I've been thinking about a "personalised recommendation engine for your career" since 2020.

Smaller, trusted groups: The new norm

In response to the information overload and public distrust, smaller and more trusted groups will become our go-to sources for real, actionable insights, At work and in our personal lives. Scary thought? Yes. Most likely the reality? Also yes. This trend could redefine how we perceive the value of information and who we trust to provide it.

Ethical dilemmas

As AI takes a bigger role in shaping our social circles, it's not just tech experts who should be asking ethical questions. What happens if the algorithm makes a mistake and connects you with someone who jeopardizes your job? Or if it favours people just like you, limiting your perspective and growth? These aren't 'what-ifs'—they're questions we'll all need to answer as AI becomes a staple in our daily social interactions.

Engaging with your curated future

AI-curated networks are the future's compass, pointing us toward untapped growth in career and personal life. But with this compass comes a puzzle of ethical choices that will shape our journey. Are we prepared?
