Facing the challenges of AI – Christian Clot<\/b><\/h2>\n

Christian Clot is<\/i><\/a> an extraordinary character. Both a researcher and an explorer, he spent 4 times 30 days in the most extreme places on the planet. I saw his videos and testimonies and was much impressed. How you could get out of this time spent in the hottest Iranian desert in the world where the slightest drop of perspiration evaporates instantly! I interviewed Christian as part of the upcoming <\/i>AI Paris 2019<\/i><\/a> exhibition, which will be held on <\/i>June 11 and 12,<\/i><\/a> of which Visionary Marketing<\/a> is a media partner. As a researcher, Christian reflects on how humans may adapt to the most profound changes that await us in the coming decades. Artificial intelligence is not the least of these challenges.\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

You have experienced the most extreme places on the planet, for what purpose?<\/b><\/h3>\n

I have been conducting studies for about ten years now on the human capacity to adapt to new and changing conditions.
\nI did this because I have been an explorer for quite some time now and I have observed in the field the changes experienced by people who live in these tough climates: cognitive changes, personality changes and changes in the way they function very profoundly.<\/p>\n

\"AI
To prevent AI from disrupting society, Christian Clot crossed an Iranian desert during his “Adaptation” project This allows him to launch research on the adaptation of human brains to intense changes[Christian Clot image via VSD]<\/figcaption><\/figure>So I decided to use extreme environments to see how the human brain reacts when it is confronted with significant changes.<\/strong><\/p>\n

You stated that we are going to experience massive changes, what are they?<\/b><\/h3>\n

We are going to experience three structural changes. The first is<\/b> not just about the environment and climate change<\/b>, but also<\/b> plastic and soil contamination, which are both extremely damaging for humanity and life in general.<\/p>\n

\"AI
AI Paris 2019 – 11 – 12 June\u00a02019 [French only]<\/figcaption><\/figure>The second major<\/b> change is the subject of AI Paris 2019<\/b>, technological change<\/b> with the arrival of new technological resources that will profoundly change the way we function as humans.
\nThe third change, societal change with<\/b> a huge increase in population: 1 billion 100 years ago to over 9 billion in a few years.
\nThese three changes are simultaneous and will, therefore, require us as a human species to redefine<\/b> ourselves in relation to our future<\/b>.
\nWhat are the parallels between climate change and technological change, mainly due to AI, Christian Clot?<\/b>
\nI think we’re going to have to transform what we were for millennia. We used to experience slow-paced changes and long-lasting environments. We could determine what we would be in ten or twenty years, which is no longer possible today.
\nThese changes will require a profound redefinition of who we are as a species and also as individuals.
