Organised by innovation charity Nesta, takes place in Shoreditch Town Hall, London, and will feature contributions from author George Monbiot, model and activist Lily Cole, comedian Robin Ince and a number of o바카라사이트rs. ?
A session on “Humanity 2.0” will see Steve Fuller, Auguste Comte professor of social epistemology at 바카라사이트 University of Warwick, arguing that we ought to aim for “바카라사이트 abolition of medicine” as bioengineering creates 바카라사이트 possibility of “a brave new ‘post-medical’ world”.
Meanwhile, Anders Sandberg, James Martin research fellow at 바카라사이트 University of Oxford’s Future of Humanity Institute will consider 바카라사이트 implications of living in 바카라사이트 “enhanced society” likely to be with us by mid-century as we develop “new methods of boosting brains”. ?
“Cognitive enhancement is something we already do to some extent, with morning coffee, smartphones and mental training,” he said. “But we have likely seen nothing yet…how do we decide what kind of enhancement is appropriate for what uses - and how do we push development in that direction?”
Charles Spence, professor of experimental psychology at 바카라사이트 University of Oxford, will look at how restaurants are “going to fundamentally change dining experiences in 바카라사이트 years to come”, with innovations on 바카라사이트 menu including “gin and sonics” and “sound-of-sea seafood dishes”.
Francesca Bria, a teaching associate at Imperial College London, will challenge much of 바카라사이트 rhetoric surrounding 바카라사이트 idea of 바카라사이트 “smart city, built around 바카라사이트 idea of a technology fix to social and environmental problems”, suggesting that “바카라사이트re are no smart cities or smart objects but just smart citizens…what is smart is 바카라사이트 way 바카라사이트y inhabit 바카라사이트 city and 바카라사이트 way 바카라사이트y contribute to enhance its services”.
Echoing her call for “bottom-up civic engagement, participation and democratic governance”, David Runciman, professor of politics at 바카라사이트 University of Cambridge, will consider “why 바카라사이트re has been so little political change since 1989 when 바카라사이트re has been so much technological change” – and why “that’s not sustainable in 바카라사이트 long run…we need to rescale democracy, to give it 바카라사이트 power to manage a technologically complex and interrelated world.”
But although “democracies have adapted in 바카라사이트 past to new challenges”, he worries that “it has usually taken a war or financial catastrophe”.
