What's on 2015 – Heaven or Hell?

There are periods in history when societies experience extraordinary and disruptive change of a magnitude and quality that will forever reshape the foundations of society. Such periods in history are revolutionary in the very profound meaning of the word.

Looking back from 2030 or 2040, this will probably be recognized as such a period, for many reasons, but mainly for the unprecedented pace of disruptive technological change. For decades we’ve been researching fields such as genetics, nanophysics and artificial intelligence, but it is not until now that we have computers with enough power and speed to take insights to full-scale, low costs applications. Now we do, and that is about to revolutionize society, business and our personal lives. For better or worse.
