The World Transformed, Part 6
Not all transformations are necessarily good. What risks do we face in a coming
age of massive change?
Phil Bowermaster and Stephen Gordon welcome journalist and futurist Sonia Arrison, and the Lifeboat Foundation’s
Philippe Van Nedervelde to talk about the risks that accompany massive technological
change. We face risks to our privacy, our safety, and our very survival. How
do we take advantages of the wonderful opportunities new technologies present
in the face of such risks?
