Das KI-Manifest von Matthias Horx ist ein Plädoyer für den humanistischen Futurismus. Das KI-Manifest setzt auf konstruktive Weise die Künstliche Intelligenz und alles, was sie mit sich bringt, mit der menschlichen Kreativität in Verbindung. Matthias Horx deckt Vorurteile und Glaubenssätze auf und zeigt, dass wir uns möglicherweise vor den falschen Gefahren fürchten. Mal nachdenklich, mal kämpferisch, mal humorvoll, immer aber beobachtungsscharf beschreibt Matthias Horx die verschiedenen Dimensionen, in denen KI uns in Gesellschaft und Wirtschaft umgibt.

En España se está produciendo un atraco a mano armada, un robo generacional que deja sin amparo a los jóvenes de este país. España va a ser uno de los países más envejecidos del mundo en 2050. La combinación de bajas tasas de natalidad y una alta longevidad ha provocado que sean los mayores, gracias a su peso electoral, quienes determinen la agenda política de nuestro país y el destino del gasto público.

El impacto social y profesional del cambio laboral. Ya nada será como antes. Esta frase podría resumir algunas de las ideas de este libro de ágil lectura y profundo como pocos. En Automatizados se combinan una vocación académica, que permite navegar las aguas turbulentas del futuro del trabajo, y una formación económica, que facilita plasmar concretamente el impacto social y profesional del cambio laboral. Existen otros libros sobre el futuro del trabajo, pero a mi entender son exploraciones superficiales y metafísicas de lo que vendrá.

In 2018, I had a dream of a coming second American Revolution/Civil War. In this dream, I saw events that are now unfolding at a rapid pace. I saw the conclusion of our present trauma, and the triumph over the evil that has been subduing our land. I saw how this victory will be accomplished. This is what I saw.

Mars, a mysterious dust-ridden place, is most like Earth in its climate and seasons. Of all the possible destinations in space to travel, Mars is the most likely for humans to reach. According to esteemed scientist Louis Friedman, it may be the only destination outside the moon to ever see human footprints. Far from diminishing our future in space, Human Spaceflight lays out a provocative future for human space travel. The noted aerospace engineer and scientist says that human space exploration will continue well into the future, but space travel by humans will stop at Mars.

Technocracy wants to rule the earth in a panopticon of scientific dictatorship. Transhumanists want to live forever and become omniscient. Both are mechanistic systems that see nature as something to be studied, manipulated, and conquered. Both see themselves as the new intelligent designers of the world, including humans. Both seek to craft a future for planet earth that nobody asked for, voted for, or wanted.

With a focus on s-risks that are both realistic and avoidable, he argues that we have strong reasons to consider their reduction a top priority. Finally, he turns to the question of what we can do to help steer the world away from s-risks and towards a brighter future.

Dans cet essai, Daniel Cohen décrypte la société d’aujourd’hui et dessine celle du futur.

Der Sozialstaat hat in den Jahrzehnten der Ökologie die Ökologie erfolgreich vermieden. Die Grenzen des Wachstums waren für die Verteidiger des Sozialen sozial uninteressant, Arbeitsplätze waren wichtiger als Nistplätze. Die Klimakrise hat dieses Desinteresse unterminiert. Zunehmend tauchen die Sozialwissenschaften im Feld der Nachhaltigkeitsforschung auf und Sozialpolitikerinnen wollen das Klima schützen. Der Essay "Soziales Klima" durchmisst das Feld der Sozialen Nachhaltigkeit mit den Mitteln einer ganzheitlichen, an Hegel und Parsons informierten Soziologie.

Informationen können direkt über die Retina ins Kleinhirn projiziert werden.

Son muchos los desafíos a los que se enfrenta el mundo hoy en día, pero posiblemente uno de los más importantes sea comprender la nueva revolución tecnológica que está acarreando la transformación de la humanidad debido a la convergencia de sistemas digitales, físicos y biológicos.

Inventing the Future is a bold new manifesto for life after capitalism. Against the confused understanding of our high-tech world by both the right and the left, this book claims that the emancipatory and future-oriented possibilities of our society can be reclaimed. Instead of running from a complex future, Nick Srnicek and Alex Williams demand a postcapitalist economy capable of advancing standards, liberating humanity from work and developing technologies that expand our freedoms.

Throughout history, and in numerous forward-thinking communities around the world today, great minds and pioneering spirits have sought and often succeeded at alternative ways of living. Some of these experiments burned brightly and briefly; others are living proof of what is possible. One of those startlingly rare books that upends our assumptions and raises our sights, Everyday Utopia gathers inspiring examples into a radically hopeful vision of how to build more contented and connected societies, as well as a practical guide to what we all can do to live the good life every day.

Humans are unique in our ability to understand time, able to comprehend the past and future like no other species. Yet modern-day technology and capitalism have supercharged our short-termist tendencies and trapped us in the present, at the mercy of reactive politics, quarterly business targets and 24-hour news cycles. It wasn't always so.

Humans are heading up and out, and we’re taking our power struggles with us. Soon, what happens in space will shape human history as much the mountains, rivers and seas have on Earth. It’s no coincidence that Russia, China and the USA are leading the way. The next fifty years will change the face of global politics. In this gripping book, bestselling author Tim Marshall lays bare the new geopolitical realities to show how we got here and where we’re going.

We are entering a new technological age in which artificial intelligence and immersive media will transform society at all levels. If managed well, this could unleash a new age of abundance. If managed poorly, this technological revolution could easily go astray, deeply compromising our privacy, autonomy, agency, and even our humanity. In Our Next Reality, two industry veterans provide a data-driven debate on whether the new world we're creating will be a technological utopia or an AI-powered dystopia and gives guidance on how to aim for the best future we can.

Leading futurist and OneShared.World founder Jamie Metzl explores how genome sequencing, gene editing, artificial intelligence, and other technologies are not only changing our lives, but catalyzing each other in radical and accelerating ways. These technologies have the potential to improve our health, feed billions of people, supercharge our economies, and store essential information for millions of years, but can also—if we are not careful—do immeasurable harm.

What’s coming next for today’s workforce, and the companies behind them? For those eager and willing to adapt, the possibilities are nearly endless, says author Gerard Szatvanyi.

Nearly every industry will be impacted, and organizations that set the right vision could benefit from breaking into new markets and creating specialized niches.

Unser Planet ist begrenzt, aber wir müssen uns weiterentwickeln, um die Herausforderungen der Zukunft zu meistern. Anders Levermann, Leiter der Komplexitätsforschung am Potsdamer Klimainstitut, schlägt einen Weg vor, der dieses Dilemma auflöst und ganz nebenbei die Ungleichheitsexplosion in unserer Gesellschaft zähmt. Wir befinden uns am Ende des Zeitalters der Expansion – und wir brauchen eine Idee für den nächsten großen Schritt. Die Begrenztheit unserer Erde kollidiert mit der Notwendigkeit rasanter gesellschaftlicher Entwicklung.

Wir können mehr, als wir glauben, wenn wir verstehen, wie wir denken. Unsere Welt befindet sich in einem großen Umbruchprozess. Wir müssen die Energiewende schaffen, den Klimawandel aufhalten, unsere Wirtschaft und Verwaltung digitalisieren – und gleichzeitig unsere Demokratie gegen Fake News und digitale Meinungsmanipulation verteidigen. An guten Ideen und konkreten Vorschlägen, was zu tun ist, mangelt es nicht. Auch nicht an Vorstellungen, wie eine lebenswerte Zukunft aussehen sollte. Dennoch kommen wir nicht in die Gänge.
