The Spatial Web: How web 3.0 will connect humans, machines and AI to transform the world

The Spatial Web: How web 3.0 will connect humans, machines and AI to transform the world will teach you how exponentially powerful computing technologies are causing a great "Convergence," how Augmented and Virtual Reality will allow us to overlay our information and imaginations onto the world, how Artificial Intelligence will infuse the environments and objects around us with adaptive intelligence, and how the Internet of Things and Robotics will allow our vehicles, appliances, clothing, furniture, and homes to become connected and embodied with intelligence, how Blockchain and Cryptocurrencies will secure our data and enable real-time transactions between the future's human, machine, and virtual economies.

The book also delves deeply into the World Wide Web's challenges and shortcomings, the rise of fake news and surveillance capitalism in Web 2.0, the threat of algorithmic terrorism, biological hacking, and "fake-reality" in Web 3.0, and the threat that emerging technologies pose in the hands of rogue actors. In response, the book advocates for sound governance and global cooperation. It urges business leaders, organizations, and governments to adopt not only interoperable software code standards but also ethical and social codes.

The book alternates between cyberpunk futurism, cautionary tales, and a life-affirming call to arms. It asks us to think about the significance of today's technology choices as individuals, companies, and as a species, as we face a historic opportunity to reshape the web, the planet, and our fundamental notion of reality. Surprisingly, this is not another futuristic romp that teases us with outlandish visions of a sci-fi future. The Spatial Web, on the other hand, offers us a road plan to get there.
