Der Westen ist am Ende. Es ist spät, wahrscheinlich sogar schon zu spät, um noch eine andere Richtung einzuschlagen, und niemand weiß, was aus dem Zusammenprall zwischen dem politisch korrekten Denken und der Wirklichkeit entstehen wird. Und trotzdem müssen wir weiterleben: leben mit dem Niedergang Europas; leben mit der Gewissheit, dass morgen schlimmer sein wird als heute; leben mit dem Wissen, dass die Tage der abendländischen Zivilisation, so wie wir sie heute kennen, gezählt sind.

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.

The rise of artificial technology has seen a total change in the way we live our lives, interact, and function in the world.

The rate of change is accelerating, the future is increasingly unpredictable, and we're overwhelmed with mind-boggling complexity. We have less and less time to think, less and less time to get in sync with what's happening. We cannot trust conventional wisdom to guide us. We must resolve many long-standing paradoxes between long or short-term thinking, expedient or ethical choices, the individual or the collective. We must be prepared for whatever emerges.

Warum KI keine Ahnung hat und trotzdem alles kann. 2023 fing die Künstliche Intelligenz an, zu schreiben und zu sprechen wie ein Mensch. Damit steht die Welt vor einem fundamentalen Umbruch. Unsere Zivilisation, die Art und Weise, wie wir leben und arbeiten, wird so stark verändert werden wie durch die Erfindung des Internets. Noch lässt sich nur erahnen, welches Ausmaß an Innovationen in allen Lebensbereichen nun möglich ist. Fest steht aber, dass wir diese technische und gesellschaftliche Revolution nur dann in unserem Sinne steuern können, wenn wir sie und ihre Pioniere kennen und verstehen.

If you had a trillion dollars and a year to spend it for the good of the world and the advancement of science, what would you do? It's an unimaginably large sum, yet it's only around one per cent of world GDP, and about the valuation of Google, Microsoft or Amazon. It's a much smaller sum than the world found to bail out its banks in 2008 or deal with Covid-19. But what could you achieve with $1 trillion? You could solve the problem of the pandemic, for one, and eradicate malaria, and maybe cure all disease. You could end global poverty.

Brought to you by Penguin. Since prehistory, bunkers have been built as protection from cataclysmic social and environmental forces, and as places of power and transformation. Today, the bunker has become the extreme expression of our greatest fears: from pandemics to climate change and nuclear...

Sensationalism about AI has reached new heights, and getting a useful understanding of it has never been more important. AI will extend and accelerate thinking, delivering unprecedented abundance. But it will also require us to navigate a path of challenges ranging from today’s issues of bias, privacy, and explainability, to job displacement through automation, and a future coexistence with superintelligent machines. This book is the roadmap to that path.

Patrick Dixon looks at how the future will be Fast, Urban, Tribal, Universal, Radical and Ethical - a future of boom and bust and great economic change as the emerging markets grow up; a future of great advances in medicine and also greater threats from viral epidemics; a future of political shocks and greater conflicts; a future in which people will strive for more privacy and businesses will change the way they relate to their staff and their customers.
