Very much in line with WAIQ's thesis, this Forbes article states that there will be no single revolutionary technology that defines the next ten years of innovation, but rather that they will be shaped by the convergence and interconnection of various emerging technologies that are becoming interdependent force multipliers, increasing each other's influence and radically changing industry, national security and global competitiveness.

How blockchain and AI will create a new era of secure infrastructure

Over the past decade, AI and blockchain have been treated as two separate avenues of innovation, but now, as AI becomes more capable (though much more vulnerable) and blockchain becomes faster and more scalable (though still limited in its ability to interpret dynamic conditions), these avenues are merging into something much more powerful: a new model of secure infrastructure based on verifiable data, resilient automation, and cryptographic assurance.
