Intelligence Rising – The Future Impact of AI

Artificial Intelligence is moving from lab to battlefield, from codebase to boardroom, faster than organisations can adapt. The challenge is no longer whether to adopt AI, but how to do so responsibly, competitively, and without exposing new vulnerabilities.

The Critical Questions of Interest

  • How do we harness the benefits of AI while managing the risks it creates?
  • Can we trust systems we don’t fully understand to influence critical decisions?
  • What happens when competitors move faster, or with fewer safeguards than we are ready to?
  • How do we sustain resilient supply chains when AI reshapes global production and logistics?
  • What does AI mean for the workforce: jobs displaced, skills needed, and people left behind?
  • How do we maintain trust and legitimacy as AI reshapes companies, economies, security, and society?

Uncovering Insights

Our Intelligence Rising narrative wargames immerse participants in these dilemmas before they become reality. Drawing on real-world dynamics, it challenges leaders to make choices under pressure, exploring ripple effects across politics, markets, security, and society.

 

In the game, teams grapple with:

  • When to prioritise innovation over caution.
  • How to respond if rivals weaponise AI in cyber, finance, or information operations.
  • Whether collaboration is achievable, or if competition always dominates.
  • How to prepare institutions, supply chains, and communities for the second- and third-order effects of AI adoption.

The Impact

AI will not wait for strategies to catch up. Intelligence Rising gives leaders the chance to rehearse critical decisions before the stakes are real—turning uncertainty into preparedness, and foresight into action. Whether the challenge is governance, security, or corporate adoption, our games create the clarity, confidence, and resilience needed to lead through disruption.

Turn tomorrow’s AI uncertainty into clarity and readiness.
