AI overview
Futures studies is a field that examines possible, probable, and preferable futures for society, technology, and politics to help us think systematically about what might happen and what we should aim for. It matters because understanding different potential futures can inform better decisions today and help us work toward outcomes we prefer rather than simply reacting to change as it arrives.
