AI and the attention economy Speaker: Amanda Johnstone, CEO, Transhuman Think you know where AI is going? Or the delineation between human and machine?

With attention key to modern marketing engagement, technology innovation has followed suit, measuring levels of comprehension to deliver tailored content that keeps audiences engaged using human-machine symbiosis in real time.

In her presentation, Amanda will teach attendees how to see what is coming next, capitalise on it, and find first-mover advantage. Armed with a desire to transform the role of technology in our lives, Amanda co-founded Transhuman, a mental health and emotion AI technology, in 2014. It was there she invented the world’s first file type responsible for data sharing in the metaverse with technology leaders from NASA, Apple and General Electric.
