How to approach 5G policies Providing unprecedented access to information in forms useful to the humans. 5G and related technologies will allow humans to search for information in smart ways where and when they need it. Many devices will be able to speak to people. Handheld devices may allow us to see not only distant objects, but also how things appear from inside, how they appeared in the past and how they would appear if we saw them in their entirety. AI should help us to use such enhanced information to make predictions helpful in our life and business. Different approach to cities, living space and resource use. 5G and related technologies may be better able to manage scarce resources, including street space and living space. This can be done in two ways. Firstly, AI may show us smart ways how to achieve our objectives with less need for scarce resources. For example, it can dynamically plan our day schedules, putting travel to times when traffic on the required routes is lighter. Secondly, digital technologies may reduce risks and the inconvenience of sharing resources, e.g. by assuring safety, punctuality, reliability and other standards of services such as shared automated vehicles. Living with robots. Personal robots will be able to perform household tasks, transport us (automated cars), take care of individuals with special needs (elderly, sick) or provide companionship and personal assistance in our homes or outside. Working with robots. Businesses and public bodies may use robots to help their customers in ways, which human workers would struggle to accomplish. Robots will also help humans with their work in a number of ways. They can perform repetitive tasks, high precision tasks, or tasks that involve risks or unhealthy environments. Moreover, they will allow humans to work from environments that are more suitable and convenient for them, including their homes. Enhancing human creativity. Freed from repetitive tasks, humans will have more time for creativity. 5G and related technologies should boost human creative potential by enabling people to experience things virtually, processing and filtering large amounts of real-world data to provide inspiration, but also by helping with repetitive (trial and error) tasks as part of their creative work. Introducing digital asset classes. As the virtual world continues growing in its importance and creativity becomes increasingly important for humans, issues around Intellectual Property (IP) become even more important than before. This can lead to the creation of numerous intangible digital asset classes with different economies compared to the real-world assets. Examples include experiences, arts, commercially useful information up to digital currencies. Facilitating body/silicon convergence. This is a somewhat controversial topic. Silicon technologies may theoretically directly interact with our bodies and brains, enhancing our capabilities as humans. Examples may include bio bots (robotic replacement of a missing body part), chip implants as well as more sophisticated technologies capable of directly connecting with our brain. 5G would then facilitate connection between us and the AI processing power in the cloud. “ 5G will let us feel the presence of remote people and objects, access information and see objects in previously unthinkable ways, take human creativity to another level, expand our economy, better use scarce resources and benefit from robotic technologies” About 5G 21
