Abstract: We’re not the first humans to have asked this question. But future-scoping has become a uniquely weighty task in an age of advanced AI, computers and a complex global system. Together, we’ll challenge ourselves to imagine what might lie ahead for humanity (and what the good life might look like) in an AI saturated world. We’ll also explore the limits of the imagination as we hit a predictive event horizon, and consider how storytelling can both enhance, and constrain, our thinking about the future.
