New technology with AI brings chances and risks

152
AI is the short word for Artificial Intelligence. The company Swiss Re expects much growth. The spending for AI data centers grows fast. In 2026 the cost is 750 billion dollars. This creates work for special insurance companies. Many data centers stand in areas with nature risks. In the USA there are often tornadoes. These are very strong storm winds. The insurance must find new solutions. Supply chains from 90 countries make the work hard. In Switzerland Swisscom uses AI in stores now. Microphones record sales talks there. Customers must say yes first. The AI checks the wishes of the customers. Sensors on the ceiling track the paths of customers. In Vienna there is new research on safety. Researchers use a quantum speed limit. This is a limit from physics. They create very safe random numbers with it. Nobody can guess these numbers before. This helps with online banking and data protection.
