About the issue:

In this issue of Asian Scientist Magazine, we look at deep technology—which refers to innovative and unique technology that is changing the world as we know it. One of the deep technologies we are most excited about is blockchain. In our special feature (New Kids On The Block(chain), p. 14), we explain how blockchain could potentially change not only the way we transact, but also everything from health records to land titles.

No issue on deep technology would be complete without a story on artificial intelligence (AI), so look out for two: A feature on how AI is being used in marketing (AI Has Its Eye On Enterprise, p. 26) and an interview with Alibaba Cloud’s Dr. Min Wanli (AI on Cloud Nine, p. 28).
