“The number one best thing people can do is to be very vigorous and active in the public discussion to get politicians at every level of government activated to move faster to reduce the emissions”, he said on stage.

American-Swedish NASA Astronaut Jessica Meir focused on innovation in space in her stage session, and pointed out that space is a perfect example of knowledge sharing and innovation transfer.

“In space, we have been working together since the beginning; it’s been designed so that we’re dependent on each other, and it really enforces peaceful collaboration up there despite what’s going on earth,” She said.

Steve Wozniak: “AI should be like a scientific journal”

A big crowd wanted to see Steve Wozniak, Co-Founder of Apple.

The Apple Co-Founder Steve Wozniak told the story about the company and working with fellow founder Steve Jobs. He also looked into the future and gave his views on how the fast development of AI should be handled.

“AI should be that way that you can click on any statement from AI and see where it got it on the web, and use your own judgment as a human.”
