Through emerging photonic networks, AI increasingly manages communication and supports new approaches to energy distribution, creating intelligent pathways for data and system coordination across the planet and into orbital space. These light-based systems will extend toward space-borne infrastructure, outlining the early foundations for interplanetary exchange and a future grid where information and energy architectures evolve together.
Artificial intelligence serves as the integrating layer that links technology, light, and global systems into a unified technological fabric. This session explores how machine learning, neural networks, and light-driven infrastructure interface with communication networks to reshape planetary technology. At its core, it asks how AI becomes the defining framework for resilience, trust, and connection as humanity moves into a multi-planetary future.
