FTI Consulting’s Artificial Intelligence experts analysed publicly-available social media mentions between May 1 2017– April 30 2018 from a group of AI influencers (as identified by our regional experts) to identify key relationships and the most common topics of conversation in the UK, Europe, the USA, UAE, Singapore and China/Hong Kong.
As the influencer mix is spread between technologists, regulators, and policy-makers, the topics of conversation on social vary from practical applications of artificial intelligence and machine learning to the ethical implications of artificial technologies. There are, however, few voices that appear to transcend borders and it seems apparent that international coordination among regulators and policy-makers is limited.
In this infographic, we outline the hot topics of conversation per region and identify how these may evolve in the months ahead.
