A hopeful optimism led Americans to cast aside traditional moral standards, valuing conspicuous consumption over austerity. Radio shows brought fresh ideas and music into homes and cars transported Americans from their family farms to new opportunities in the city. Americans weren’t the only beneficiaries of all this growth. Europeans enjoyed great economic prosperity in the aftermath of World War I, while South America became a beneficiary of new oil production. It seemed as though the good times might last forever.  \nBut the Roaring Twenties also brought Prohibition, a short-sighted regulatory attempt to shape American society that resulted in the rise of organized crime and kingpins like Al Capone. Fascism, authoritarian dictators and civil wars erupted in Eastern Europe and China in the aftermath of collapsed empires. Technological innovations, like the Panama Canal, moving assembly lines and wide-scale electric power transmission, had created new wealth but it wasn’t evenly distributed. More than two-thirds of Americans survived on wages too low to sustain everyday living, and they didn’t have a safety net. High valuations and the promise of massive returns lured enthusiastic investors, who bought company shares—lots of them—using questionable loans. When share prices began their inevitable decline, people panicked. By October 1929, the stock market crashed, setting in motion a Great Depression, a rise in xenophobia and far-right extremism, and eventually, another world war.  \nIt’s difficult not to see unsettling parallels to our present-day world. But we are positioned to make better choices this time around. A century ago, the tools of modern strategic foresight hadn’t been invented yet. There was no method of researching and categorizing trends that might influence the future. Rather than studying plausible long-term implications, leaders made decisions in the moment. Or they didn’t actively make decisions at all.  \n© 2020 FUTURE TODAY INSTITUTE  \nWith the benefit of both hindsight and strategic foresight, we now have frameworks and methods to identify risk and capitalize on emerging opportunity. In fact, you’re holding one of those tools in your hand: our 2020 Tech Trends Report. It’s vitally important to make connections between emerging trends, your industry and society, especially this year as we reach a tipping point for a number of technologies and trends that will shape the world of tomorrow.  \nA sample of them include:  \n􀀟 A.I. systems that can be trained in hours rather than weeks  \n􀀟 Widespread availability of algorithmically-traded funds  \n􀀟 Off-planet human civilization  \n􀀟 Bioengineered animals, plant-based proteins and indoor robot-powered farms  \n􀀟 Autonomous cars, trucks, ships and fighter jets  \n􀀟 Exascale computing  \n􀀟 Quantum computing  \n􀀟 Functional 5G networks  \nConnections must also be made between technologies and many external uncertainties that will continue to loom:  \n􀀟 The outcome of the 2020 U.S. election  \n􀀟 A heightened scrutiny of chief executives and boards  \n􀀟 Frequent extreme weather events  \n􀀟 The proliferation of superbugs and new epidemics  \n􀀟 The rise of extreme political movements and ideologies  \n􀀟 Unstable U.S.-China relations  \n􀀟 Unresolved tensions between Russia and the West  \n􀀟 An ongoing clash between old laws and new technologies  \nWe cannot know how future historians will remember the 2020s or what they will name this decade. We can, however, choose to put forth our best efforts to plan strategically for an era of technological innovation, measured growth, distributed prosperity and solutions that will propel humankind forward.  \nNow, more than ever, your organization should ","cbCaia4FHNGoSddw","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaia4FHNGoSddw","pdf",63176215,366,"English","# The Year Ahead\n## Historical parallels and lessons\n## A.I., computing, and next-gen connectivity\n## Synthetic decade and life engineering\n## Key external uncertainties","[{\"question\":\"What is the main purpose of the 2020 Tech Trends Report?\",\"answer\":\"To help organizations connect emerging technology trends with industry and society, and to plan strategically for the coming year by identifying risk and opportunity.\"},{\"question\":\"Which technology areas are highlighted as likely to accelerate soon?\",\"answer\":\"The report highlights AI systems, algorithmically traded funds, functional 5G networks, exascale and quantum computing, autonomous vehicles and infrastructure, and advanced approaches to synthetic biology and engineered life.\"},{\"question\":\"What kinds of external uncertainties does the report say must be considered alongside technologies?\",\"answer\":\"It calls out election outcomes, scrutiny of executives and boards, extreme weather events, the spread of superbugs and new epidemics, rising political extremism, unstable U.S.-China relations, tensions between Russia and the West, and clashes between old laws and new technologies.\"}]","13th Annual Edition - Tech Trends Report - A Year-Ahead Strategic Outlook | PDF",1791928124,128]
