SXSW 2023
Empowerment: We are ALL Futurists
Description:
We are sold possible futures by social media, influencers, experts, our families, authorities, and conspiracy theorists. How do we build literacies on possible futures to make major decisions? In an era of increased choice from digitalization, machine learning, augmentation, and platforms, some call our current state "organized immaturity," as more and more decisions are being taken out of our own hands by systems and "easy" processes. This session will be both a wake-up call for some and a call to others to build a more adventurous journey for new futures.
