Each year, MIT Technology Review\u2019s reporters and editors pick 10 Breakthrough Technologies<\/a>, all of which have the promise to fundamentally change the way we live and work. This year\u2019s list covers everything from space science and telemedicine to advances in artificial intelligence and biotechnology. They represent the technologies we predict will have the biggest impact on our lives in the year ahead.<\/p>\n

This year\u2019s TR10<\/a> is the 22nd we\u2019ve published, and I\u2019ll be highlighting an entry each day in The Download for the next 10 days, starting tomorrow. We hope you enjoy marveling at the progress that\u2019s been made in the fields of gene editing, military drones, battery recycling, and computer chip design, to name just a few.<\/p>\n

David Rotman, our editor at large, has written a fascinating introductory essay which sets out how legislation investing hundreds of billions into industry and research and development could reset how we think about governments’ role in the economy. You can read it here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Finally, we want to hear from you! We\u2019re giving you the chance to help pick a bonus 11th technology. You can vote in our poll<\/a> until March 1, when I’ll be announcing the winner in The Download.<\/p>\n

TR10: what the editors think<\/strong> Mat Honan, our editor in chief, Amy Nordrum, our executive editor of operations, and David Rotman will be hosting a conversation on LinkedIn Live to discuss this year\u2019s list today from 2-2:30pm ET<\/strong>. Sign up here<\/a> to tune in.<\/p>\n

In the back room of an old building in New Zealand, one of the most advanced computers for artificial intelligence is helping to redefine the technology\u2019s future.<\/p>\n

Te Hiku Media, a nonprofit M\u0101ori radio station, bought the machine to train its own algorithms for natural-language processing. It\u2019s now a central part of a dream to revitalize the M\u0101ori language while keeping control of the community\u2019s data.<\/p>\n

The project is a radical departure from the way the AI industry typically operates, but could point the way to a new generation of AI\u2014one that does not treat marginalized people as mere data subjects but reestablishes them as co-creators of a shared future. Read the full story<\/a>.<\/p>\n
