Overview

Blockchain truly is a revolutionary mechanism to bring everyone to the highest degree of accountability. Above anything else, the most critical application of Blockchain technology is to guarantee the validity of a transaction by recording it on a distributed system of registers, all of which are interconnected through a secure time-stamped mechanism. In today's digital information age, Blockchain represents a critical intersection between the financial world, social networking, and powerful decentralized networks. Stakeholders must formulate careful legal and business strategies that factor in the technology and infrastructure, as well as the corresponding market appetite and regulatory structures in rapidly evolving global markets.

This Blockchain Technology Conference to be held on April 13, 2018 in Shangai aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of Blockchain technology by focusing on how to address the implementation challenges, make best use of the opportunities and benefit from the innovation and disruption that this technology brings along.

Consumers have demonstrated an increasing demand for safer and healthier foods. PricewaterhouseCoopers estimates food fraud is a $40 billion global problem. Trust has been lost over the years due to numerous food scandals around the world. That trust with consumers must be rebuilt through a more transparent and accountable food supply network. We’ll explore several ways Blockchain in conjunction with other technologies can transform the global food trade, driving transparency and traceability in what we eat.

02:15 PM EST What super AI can do with the blockchain mechanism?

As Mark Zuckerberg had once stated, he is aiming at elevating the human learning capacity 100 times than what we have today. This is what humans can do for the next generation in the years to come. To achieve this goal, AI will be a vital tool. Whether or not the super AI that exceeds the human being emerges, a personal AI for everyone would be of great help to form the mass consciousness that enable us to realize the mind-uploading or downloading. This will be realized through a mindfile, that will be hashed and stored on the blockchain. The token will be generated to incentivize the community participation, and the more data we have, the more the super AI will be emerged. In the future, everyone will have his/her customized AI which looks like you, sounds like you, also 'thinks' like you. It can be your delegation and can be a great tool to generate insight for you on your direction of knowledge development. So this talk will be focused on how super AI is going to incorporate the blockchain mechanism in order to create the better you, or the omniscient consciousness.
