New Technologies: We have seen nothing yet
Page 2
Abstract
In this talk we will argue that developments in science will continue with increasing speed, opening completely new vistas. Why this is so is not just due to the usual trivial observations such as "developments are happening very fast and it seems even at accelerating speed". Rather, we will show a number of much deeper reasons, why nw developments will come at us as surprise, and to an extent hard to imagine. Some of the arguments are surprising in themselves and shed a light on how we think, and how we have to change our thinking to at least grasp a bit of what is going to happen. Surprisingly, it also turns out that some reasons show the weaknesses of our information age and how knowing this, we can become better in handling complicated situations and negotiations. If this sounds all a bit vague, it is, and it is vague on purpose: the speaker wants to surprise everyone in the audience a few times by presenting concrete samples and does not want to give away some of the highlights in this abstract.
