The Earth speaks, and humanity listens. With heightened environmental concerns, green technology is emerging as a resounding response. No longer are we stuck with clunky, eco-conscious afterthoughts – green tech is revolutionizing industries, shaping a future where sustainability and progress go hand in hand. Let’s dive into the world of these green tech marvels, where innovation takes center stage!

POWERING CHANGE: THE RENEWABLE REVOLUTION

Gone are the days of reliance on fossil fuels. Renewable energy sources are surging, with solar panels seamlessly blending into rooftops and wind turbines elegantly decorating landscapes. Perovskite solar cells, with their improved efficiency and lower manufacturing costs, are poised to transform the solar industry. Bladeless wind turbines, quieter and more bird-friendly, are harmonizing energy production with wildlife conservation. But that’s not all. The grid isn’t being left behind. Blockchain technology is facilitating peer-to-peer energy trading, allowing individuals to generate and sell their own clean energy. This democratization of power paves the way for a more sustainable, community-driven energy landscape.

GREENING THE STREETS: THE ELECTRIC AND HYDROGEN REVOLUTION

Transportation is undergoing a metamorphosis. Electric vehicles (EVs) have evolved from being a niche to becoming sleek, powerful machines challenging the dominance of gasoline-powered cars. Battery technology is constantly advancing, with solid-state batteries offering extended range and faster charging times. But the future isn’t limited to electric alone. Hydrogen fuel cell vehicles (HFCVs) are emerging as strong contenders. With hydrogen being easily produced from water using renewable energy, HFCVs offer clean emissions and exceptional range, making them ideal for long-distance travel. This creates a dynamic green transportation ecosystem, with EVs dominating shorter commutes and HFCVs conquering longer distances.

BEYOND THE OBVIOUS: ECO-FRIENDLY MARVELS WE DIDN’T EXPECT

Green tech extends beyond flashy cars and solar panels. Biomimicry, the art of learning from nature, is inspiring groundbreaking solutions. Self-healing concrete that mimics the body’s ability to repair itself extends the lifespan of infrastructure and reduces waste. Mycelium, the root network of mushrooms, is being utilized to create sustainable packaging materials that biodegrade rapidly, tackling the plastic pollution crisis. The battle against climate change extends beyond energy and transportation. Air filtration technologies are mimicking nature’s way of purifying the air. Imagine towering structures inspired by trees, cleansing pollutants from urban environments!

PROMPT ENGINEERING AS A WAY OF COMMUNICATING WITH THE MACHINE:

INTERVIEW WITH EDWARD FRANK MORRIS, NEW WFA BOARD MEMBER

Welcome to an exclusive interview with Edward Frank Morris, newly appointed Board Member of the World Future Awards. Edward’s expertise spans the broad areas of marketing, generative artificial intelligence, and prompt engineering. During our conversation, Edward shared with us his insights on these and other equally exciting topics.

World Future Awards: Edward, congratulations on your appointment as a World Future Awards Board Member. Please tell us how your journey as a user of AI tools started and why you chose prompt engineering as one of the main areas of your professional activity.

Edward Frank Morris: Thank you so much! It’s an honor to be here with you, the other judges, and the candidates. I think it’s important for people to understand what Prompt Engineering is because it’s something we’ll all come across at some point. Prompt Engineering is very similar to communication, except this time, you’re giving those communications to an AI to do very specific things. Nearly every piece of Generative AI we have works in a Prompting-based fashion, and to be good at one area of prompting usually translates into other areas, providing the technology stands on its own. If you’re good at talking to machines, you’ll be good at AI.

But if you’re great at talking to it, you’ll be ahead of the rest of the competition.

WFA: For many people, you have already become a guide to the expanding possibilities of artificial intelligence in content creation. But for those who are not yet using AI in business, what can you say about the key benefits that proper prompt engineering provides?

EFM: That’s a great question. I think most people don’t actually understand that the systems they get, whether it’s ChatGPT or similar, are massively underutilized without the correct coaching or upskilling. Most people have the incorrect assumption that how they use ChatGPT or other Large Language Models out of the box is good enough. But to get profound responses that are actually useful requires a lot of Prompt Engineering and creation. The right prompt can save you hours or days of time. The wrong prompt can cost you time. But using AI, generally, is always a net positive.

WFA: What achievements and milestones in your career have had the biggest impact on your expertise?

EFM: I think the biggest one so far has been the

Microsoft team. A little whisper to tell me I was on the right path. As it would turn out, I was the first Prompt Engineering-specific person to get the award.

WFA: The scope of application of AI tools is extremely broad. What trends and areas of artificial intelligence use do you pay the most attention to in your work and why?

EFM: I think anything that completes tedious, repetitive tasks are worth attention. Don’t get me wrong, Generative AI isn’t 100% of the way there yet, but we are getting pretty close. It won’t be long until a lot of businesses find themselves in a situation where they wish they started adapting or at least considering AI now rather than later.

WFA: How do AI prompts differ from the usual search engine requests? What techniques or strategies help to form correct prompts and build communication to maximize the effectiveness of artificial intelligence?

EFM: I think that’s a good distinction to make. You can certainly use a lot of AI, even like ChatGPT, as a search engine. Asking it for answers to fairly difficult questions that Google or similar would stumble on

WFA: How accessible is prompt engineering to non-technical users? Is expertise in coding or other high-tech areas critical for working with AI tools?

EFM: It depends on how technical you want to get with it. For entry-level? Nope! As long as you’re good at stringing together sentences and giving commands? Then you’ll get a good response. On the far more technical side, you can use Prompting with an API from a Large Language Model like OpenAI’s ChatGPT to get very different responses based on other interactive features.
