Abstract

Over the next 20 years, Artificial Intelligence (AI) is set to democratise access to financial information and advice, changing how we save and manage our finances. Cash will become increasingly obsolete, and our decisions about how to spend and save will be driven more and more by environmental and ethical concerns. More of our health and care will be provided at home or in the community, and technological advances will support faster and cheaper diagnostic testing, and more personalised treatments.
 
We will be using driverless cars. We will work for longer, but how, when and where we work will change. And the boundaries between work and learning will become more fluid, as we continue to learn throughout our lives. More of us will be renting into later life, and we’ll all have access to the key amenities we need by travelling no more than 15 minutes on foot or by bike. We will be able to work, live, and play from our homes, and smarter homes will enable us to live independently for longer.
 
But we are vastly unprepared for these changes.
 
Through this presentation, David Sinclair will set out how our economy will need to adapt to longer lives.

Lorem Ipsum es simplemente el texto de relleno de las imprentas y archivos de texto. Lorem Ipsum ha sido el texto de relleno estándar de las industrias desde el año 1500, cuando un impresor (N. del T. persona que se dedica a la imprenta) desconocido usó una galería de textos y los mezcló de tal manera que logró hacer un libro de textos especimen. No sólo sobrevivió 500 años, sino que tambien ingresó como texto de relleno en documentos electrónicos, quedando esencialmente igual al original. Fue popularizado en los 60s con la creación de las hojas “Letraset”, las cuales contenian pasajes de Lorem Ipsum, y más recientemente con software de autoedición, como por ejemplo Aldus PageMaker, el cual incluye versiones de Lorem Ipsum.
