Four scenarios on the future of AI in the workplace
AI’s rapid rise in the workplace is opening up new possibilities—some optimistic, others unsettling. We explore how AI could alter job roles, workplace dynamics, and society at large through four different scenarios.
The Battle for Space
Who Will Dominate Outer Space? According to the administration, the new "Space Force" will be separate from the Air Force but equal. The proposal would have to go through US Congress, which won't be an easy task. It is, therefore, unlikely to come about anytime soon.
The Moon Could be a Launchpad for Deep Space Exploration
In the last few years alone, there's been incredible progress in our dream to explore deep space. Thanks to the efforts of individuals like Elon Musk and organizations like NASA, interest in space talk has spiked again. And so has competition within the industry. Now, some believe that the key to fully realizing our ambitions may lie on the moon.
Is Space Tourism Finally Coming?
Until recently, space tourism was the stuff of science fiction. But now, thanks in large to private companies pushing for it, we are only a couple of years away. While this spells exciting times, it also brings up questions about our very own nature.
A New Home For Us
Elon Musk has published a paper entitled "Making Humans a Multi-planetary Species," where he argues for the necessity of colonizing Mars and how we could possibly get there. There are several companies pushing for a "space economy," which could spark new industries and, if successful, open up hundreds of billions of dollars into the "multi-world economy”.
Living in Space Colonies
You can always dream big. But when you're a billionaire, you get to put plans into action immediately. That's what Jeff Bezos has been doing for almost 2 decades with Blue Origin. Recently, he unveiled his plans for the future of humankind, and they involve living space colonies, each 1-million plus strong.
