Research Director Aksel Braanen Sterri comments on the Perpektivin NRK Nyheter
“We need a perspective message with multiple perspectives.” This was the main message of Aksel Braanen Sterri, Head of Science, when he spoke about artificial intelligence (AI) at Norsk rikskringkasting (NRK) in connection with the launch of the perspective message. Previous perspective reports have overlooked the financial crisis, the pandemic, wars and most recently artificial intelligence, i.e. the really big events. Instead of just presenting one scenario, we should acknowledge the uncertainty we live with. This allows us to assess how robust our societal institutions are in the face of many different futures, not just the one that most closely resembles the past.

Vi står på terskelen til en slags «perfekt storm» i helsevesenet
Intervju av seniorrådgiver Sigrid Bratlie om helsepolitikk og regulering av bioteknologi. -Regelverket for bruk av genteknologi er i dag svært lite treffsikkert og paradoksalt nok motsatt av hvordan det burde være. Nyttig bruk av genteknologi, særlig innen matproduksjon, er overregulert av politiske årsaker, mens de virkelig farlige bruksområdene er underregulert.
