Over 15 rich years of public forecasting, Amy Webb has become one of the most prominent futurists around.
As an author, the former journalist is behind nonfiction books such as The Big Nine, exploring the potentially dire consequences of unchecked artificial intelligence; Data: A Love Story, about how she used algorithms to help herself date; and The Signals Are Talking, in which she examined the better ways to read the right tea leaves. As founder and leader of the Future Today Institute, Webb has headed up a group that spots and advises on coming social and technological change for all manner of organisations. (The institute also issues an annual must-read Tech Trends Report on what to imagine for the times ahead.)
