🌟 How will technologies, such as A.I. impact our #happiness in the future? 📪 Based on our small sample survey 41% of respondents agree that 'AI will promote happiness more but the impact is limited'. Meanwhile, only 7% think that 'AI will have a more negative impact on happiness'. ❤️ In the past weekend, we had a great forum with Bill Duane on #buddism and the future of #AI, with 陈楸帆Stanley Qiufan Chan, the Chinese sci-fi writer on the protocol of A.I., and #techforgood insights from Lu Shiyu, Tencent Research Insitute and #techinclusion professional practice from Yifan Gan, RollingAI.

🙌 As Shermon Cruz aptly states in his article, 'Dreams and Disruptions is more than a game; it’s a catalyst for change and for inspiring players to envision and work towards a future that is as bold and imaginative as the game itself.' This idea is at the heart of our collaboration. 🎮 We deeply believe in the power of gamification and imagination to empower foresight practitioners, social changemakers, and the next generation. With 'radical hope,' we aim to equip them to navigate today’s uncertainties, complexities, and challenges, paving the way for a beautiful new world. 🎉 Today, we're thrilled to announce our partnership with the Center for Engaged Foresight (CEF) to develop the Mandarin version of Dreams and Disruption. Let's stay tuned! #Foresight #Gamification #FutureReady #SocialChange"
