Over the next 50 years, society will need to respond to myriad issues relating to the proper use and consequences of unprecedented developments, and the insights these provide. With every technological advance mankind makes, there are potentially thousands of questions that will be generated, the majority concerning the appropriate uses and application of that technology and determining whether the benefits are worth the price the planet ends up paying. In the coming years and decades, it will no longer be a question of what technology can do for us, but rather what we should allow technology to do. It will be increasingly important that society, taking account of individual beliefs as well as joint values, discusses and agrees on our technological future. It’s an ongoing revolution, and we have to take control.
