AI - Afterthought or Reality? Learn the impact of AI in the modern world in this McKinsey event

NEW YORK - Dec. 7, 2020 - PRLog -- Blockchain companies, entrepreneurs, startups, and expert analysts will convene for the upcoming AI/Disruption 2.0 Speaker webinar series organized by McKinsey & Company on January 7, 2021.

David Drake, Founder and Chairman of LDJ Capital and The Soho Loft Media Group, spoke about DeFi (decentralized finance) at the previous McKinsey webinar event last September 23, 2020. He said, "There has been ongoing activity concerning digital assets and cryptocurrencies as we are facing this pandemic. I think more people are looking into these investments as numerous lockdowns are being imposed globally. This may be an indication that companies and investments may turn things around during this COVID-19 pandemic."

Along with Algorand's founder Silvio Micali, here are some of the notable guest speakers in the January 7 webinar:

Hany Farid, Professor, University of California, Berkeley
Hao Li, CEO, Pinscreen
Mike Beck, Global CISO, Darktrace
Nicole Eagan, Chief Strategy & AI Officer, Darktrace
Susan Athey, Professor, Stanford University

The multiple monthly webinar sessions started in October 2020 and will continue until February 2021. The topics for discussion include the role of AI in revolutionizing cybersecurity, blockchain 2.0, and the building blocks of a borderless economy, quantum computing, and the criminal justice system and AI.
