After yet another lengthy discussion on AI and the Magnificent 7, Paul Schofield, Head of Global Equities at Royal London Asset Management, challenged the team to think out of the box and come up with the next truly transformative theme. Not just another iteration of digital disruption, but something that could reshape markets, societies, and even the human experience itself.
The usual suspects came up: space exploration, the nuclear renaissance, the robot companion, but what really struck me was the idea that the next frontier might not be out there in the cosmos or deep in the lab, but within us. Human enhancement. Not just tools to help us, but technologies that change us.
For millennia, human progress meant building tools to overcome our limitations. Fire, agriculture, antibiotics, and education reshaped our lives, but left our biology untouched.

Read Paul's thoughts on human enhancement and its potential impact on markets and societies.
