Humanity is in charge of its own future, we can dictate how fast we want technology and media to go because we create it. If we want to have a world which is obsessed with media and not authentic, we would continue down the road we are going. Media is in our hands. We control it. We control everything about it and therefore we are in charge of our future.
The future of humanity is often viewed as a topic for idle speculation. Yet our beliefs and assumptions on this subject matter shape decisions in both our personal lives and public policy – decisions that have very real and sometimes unfortunate consequences. It is therefore practically important to try to develop a realistic mode of futuristic thought about big picture questions for humanity.
