The technology’s development belongs to everyone — share your vision with us
May 31, 2026
Technologists envision a golden era of humanity and the transformation of society as we know it . . . cheap, abundant intelligence bringing radical upsides — economic opportunity, health, scientific progress and happiness.
But so far, AI is mostly used to generate efficiency, productivity and profit. Where’s the imagination around how AI can be used to improve our lives — today and in the future?
There is an opening. An opportunity to offer varied visions for a world that we want to build. For now, human beings remain in charge of their destinies. It’s up to us to challenge the futures we are fed — and help create ones that we want. And the right to imagine AI’s role belongs to everyone.
