Overview

De que lado está? Novo manifesto provocador de Gerd Leonhard Futurista Leonhard volta a abrir novos caminhos ao juntar o desejo da humanidade atualizar e automatizar tudo - até à própria biologia humana - com a nossa busca intemporal de liberdade e felicidade. Antes que seja demasiado tarde, temos de parar e fazer as perguntas importantes: Como adotamos a tecnologia sem nos tornarmos nela? Quando acontecer - gradual e, depois, subitamente - a era das máquinas vai criar o maior ponto de viragem na vida humana na Terra. Tecnologias vs. Humanidade é apenas um dos mais recentes mapas morais que encontramos enquanto a humanidade entra no Parque Jurássico da Grande Tecnologia. Inteligência artificial. Informática cognitiva. A Singularidade. Obesidade digital. Comida impressa. A Internet das Coisas. A morte da privacidade. O fim do trabalho-como-o-conhecemos e longevidade radical: o confronto iminente entre tecnologia e humanidade já se está a apressar na nossa direção. Que valores morais está preparado para defender - antes de o sentido de ""ser humano"" mudar para sempre?

As humanity rushes headlong into a world first served and soon dominated by technology, futurism has become a burning issue for everyone, not just visionaries and geeks. Gerd Leonhard blends humanism with futurism to create manifestos and creative non-fiction that dramatically widens the franchise and audience for near-future exploration. His new book - Technology vs. Humanity - is a breakthrough work of provocation that alerts the world to the imminent ethical and moral choices we will all have to confront much sooner than expected. A musician and creative by background, Leonhard has spent fifteen years living in the future, applying his insights and practical wisdoms to present-day dilemmas from the erosion of work life to the epidemic of digital obesity that threatens to destroy a generation. Founder of The Futures Agency, Gerd Leonhard travels the world delivering customized advice to enterprise and public organizations of all kinds - helping them to both understand their future choices and discover their 'true future'.

Together with the The Futures Agency advisory and speaking tours, these media properties constitute a unique quarry of groundbreaking insights for individuals and organizations in transformation.
