Few voices capture the intersection of innovation, vision, and disruption quite like Jason Bradbury. As a leading technology speaker, he illuminates the bold frontier where emerging tech meets everyday life.

From hovering cars to AI-driven futures, Jason has long been ahead of the curve - delivering insight, entertainment, and clarity to audiences navigating a rapidly shifting digital age.

In this exclusive interview, he shares his take on the ethics of AI, his bold predictions for what's next, and how we can all become active participants in shaping the technology landscape of tomorrow.

Q: How do you see AI transforming business models and competitive advantage in the next decade?

That's a critical question. I would counter with - how is it not going to affect the future of business? I mean, let's put it this way: imagine that you had a crystal ball back in the noughties when computers were traditionally disconnected in offices around the world.

The internet didn't really exist; it was just happening as bulletin boards or simple kinds of email services. But you had access to a vision of the future that told you new services like something called Amazon were going to arrive, where you could get logistics shipped around the world in lightning speed. You could order products and get them delivered not just the next day, but in some cities, the same day.

Services like Blockbuster, which at that time would have been really familiar on the High Street, would just fail and no longer exist - replaced by mega corporations like Netflix, Amazon, and something called Google.

Imagine you had that knowledge - that you were able to look into the future and predict all of that. How would that have changed your business? How would it have changed your workforce, the people you employ, the skills you value, how you interact with customers, or what services you offer?

Well, that's the state we're in now. AI is as big, arguably bigger, than the dot-com boom or even the invention of the computer. This is how species-level important this innovation is. In line with my "30 Days of AI" speech, I actually asked this question to an AI - "How will AI affect the future of business?" It replied: "AI is expected to have a significant impact on the future of business, leading to increased efficiency and cost saving through automation and improved decision-making.

It added that "AI will also enhance the customer experience through personalised recommendations and support and give rise to new business models." It's up to you - which answer do you prefer, the human one or the AI one?

Q: In a rapidly evolving tech landscape, how can we ensure AI tools and systems remain ethical and trustworthy?

How can we ensure that the processes and tools of the AI revolution remain ethical? The ethics of AI is really the talking point of the moment. You might be aware that there are certain signatures to a letter - one of which is Elon Musk, which is where all the headlines come from - and the letter is asking for a pause in the development of AI.

It might sound strange that in our current stage of late capitalism, pausing innovation seems impossible, but there are historical precedents for slowing things down: chemical and biological weapons, nuclear weapons, and even human cloning - all paused for ethical reasons. We've proven capable, as a species, of coming together and agreeing to make the right decisions. Perhaps that's what we'll have to do with AI.

The reason ethics are so important is the speed of AI's evolution. It grows exponentially - very quickly, sometimes beyond our control. We don't yet have the moral or ethical frameworks in which to operate. That's why it's such a challenge - it's rapid, powerful, and potentially problematic.

Q: What emerging technology do you believe will redefine industries after AI, and why?

This is the number one question I get asked at speaking engagements, and my answer has evolved over the past decade. I used to talk about blockc...
