“Leave no one behind.” This was the message the World Water Day championed this year. The plea to leave no one behind – a basic tenet of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs) - is a powerful call for universal inclusiveness. It envisages a world where the water-stressed areas of today do not face the same challenges in the future. Water is a precious resource for every nation, but it is particularly incumbent upon the water-scarce regions to proactively work towards sustainable and innovative ways that ensure access to safe and clean water for all.

It’s not every day that a piece of research strikes a chord. But a Cushman & Wakefield report on exponential technological change and its implications felt personal. It read: ‘An executive moving from graduation to management over 20 years will face technology 500,000 times more powerful than the day they started work.’

If you didn’t have the ability to see, whose voice would you trust to guide you every day?
Who would accompany you on trips, read to you, help you shop? Who would adapt to your routine, pick out your smartest shirt, inform you about the best places to eat, and even remember to record your favourite TV show while you dine?
No human could be so constant, so patient, or so responsive. But AI can.
