About the Digital Futures Project

In 1964, Isaac Asimov imagined the 2014 World鈥檚 Fair for The New York Times. He hit the mark on the smartphone, the self-driving car and the Keurig machine; he missed widely on battery technology and space colonization. Foresight is hard, and foresight is only getting harder.

The rate of technological innovation has soared since. 鈥淒isruption鈥 has been the watchword of the last decade; 鈥渕ove fast and break things鈥 is the defining slogan of the first fifteen years of the third millennium. The legacy concepts broken to bits have included traditional understandings of privacy, identity, violence and surveillance. Confronting that context, 澳门六合彩鈥檚 Digital Futures Project is dedicated to understanding the ways in which emerging technologies shape policymaking. Less and less of life, war and business takes place offline. More and more, policy is transacted in a space little noticed and poorly understood by traditional legal and political authorities. The Digital Futures Project is a map to the constraints and opportunities generated by innovations around the corner - a resource for policymakers navigating a world they didn鈥檛 build.
