How To Create Better Versions of Ourselves

Description:

Over the past decade, businesses have moved their focus from Product to Experience Design. Yet people ultimately buy better versions of themselves, not mere products or experiences. This means we’ll need to move to Human Design. To envision better versions of humans, we will need to understand future human needs, stretch our imagination to envision extraordinary enhancements (make wishes for human improvement, basically) and use our creativity to enable these wishes with technology. We will give three concrete examples of such wishes already coming true and explain the technology that’s enabling this: our wisdom to become eternal; of being ubiquitous; and for true freedom.
