Chris Duffy: 本期节目探讨了对未来的预测和规划,以及如何应对未来世界的不确定性。以Segway为例,说明了对未来科技的预测并不总是准确的,并强调了探索多种未来可能性和规划的重要性。 Anab Jain: 作为一名投机性设计师,Anab Jain分享了她如何通过创造性的方式,将未来的可能性具象化,让决策者和公众能够更直观地理解未来可能面临的挑战和机遇。她强调了体验式设计的重要性,认为通过触觉、嗅觉等感官体验,能够更有效地影响人们对未来的认知和决策。她还探讨了虚构与非虚构之间的界限,认为基于事实和数据的未来预测,本身也包含着一定的虚构成分,而这种虚构能够帮助人们更好地理解和应对未来的不确定性。她以气候变化为例,说明了如何通过创造性的方式,让公众更直观地感受到气候变化带来的影响,并激发人们积极参与创造更美好的未来。 Anab Jain: Anab Jain 认为,乌托邦和反乌托邦的未来设想过于理想化,现实中的未来将会更加复杂和充满挑战。她更关注的是如何通过创造性的方式,帮助人们在复杂和混乱的现实中找到方向,减少不平等,并促进更公平的未来。她还探讨了想象力的不平等,认为并非所有人的想象力都能成为主流叙事的一部分,并呼吁打破这种不平等,让更多人的声音能够被听到。她认为,现有的教育体系在一定程度上压制了人们的想象力,并建议人们要保持好奇心,质疑一切,积极参与创造未来。她还探讨了人工智能的未来,认为人工智能应该成为人类的伙伴,帮助人类扩展认知能力和想象力,而不是取代人类。她以河流为例,说明了如何利用人工智能,让决策者更全面地考虑人类与自然之间的关系,并做出更明智的决策。
