Since 2024, five themes have shaped how we think about AI.

How our thinking has moved

Five questions, followed year after year. Start with 2027 and travel back to where it began.

The frontier

Today’s AI writes and answers. The next generation acts, moves and helps build its own successors.

We follow that shift as it happens.

AI is widening what people can know, make and decide. In 2027 we ask who gets to shape that bigger world.

In 2027, the question is what happens when AI helps build its own successors.

Coming soon

Agents reached everyday work and nations raced to build their own AI. We asked what stays distinctly human.

We asked how close AI is to matching human intelligence, and what it would take to get there.

How close is general intelligence, and how would we know?

AI had arrived. The question moved from promise to proof: where does it create real value?

We asked what changes when AI starts to act, see and move.

What changes when AI stops answering and starts doing?

The first AI House in Davos, as AI went mainstream. We asked where the technology really stood.

We asked what comes after the chatbot, from quantum computing to open models.

Could quantum computers make AI more powerful?

These questions are open, and the best answers come from many perspectives.
