As AI becomes smarter and more humanlike, our societies, our economies, and our humanity will undergo the most dramatic changes we've seen since the Agricultural Revolution. Some of these changes will enhance our species. Others may dehumanize us and make us more machinelike in our interactions with others.

Dabei kommen Risiken genauso zur Sprache wie die Möglichkeiten in der Welt von morgen, etwa wie KI-Modelle Menschen helfen, Großartiges zu schaffen, Benachteiligungen abzubauen und sozialen Aufstieg ermöglichen.

You've read Strauss and Howe. You can see we're deep in a Fourth Turning—institutions crumbling, trust collapsing, a climax approaching. But their framework leaves a troubling question: What then? Another High that suppresses the wounds? Another cycle that guarantees the next collapse?

Sondern solche, die die Harmonie stören, als verweichlicht gelten, andere herunterziehen oder sich über sie stellen wollen. »Opfer« – das ist längst ein Vorwurf geworden. Wenn Menschen nicht so viel jammern würden, heißt es, hätten wir nicht so viele Probleme. Was passiert in unserer Gesellschaft, wenn Sensibilität als elitär gilt, das »Recht des Stärkeren« dagegen als egalitär und authentisch?

We are in a cold war, but one unlike anything we've seen before. Influence, ignorance and ideology have been weaponised, with USA and China fighting on the global battleground to push their rival visions of the future.
