Here is a crucial message from me, as we are struggling towards the eventual Covid-19 rebound, dealing with the consequences of the Russian war against the Ukraine, finally starting to take real action on climate change, and regulating exponential technologies. Terrible events do not cancel the future – they challenge us to reimagine it ! The more that the present challenges us with ghosts of the past, the more we need the future to balance, inspire and steer us. The old Vikings dreaded fog because it stopped them navigating by the stars. Today’s constellations are also obscured by the fog of war and the ludicrous actions of autocratic regimes. But the stars - and the future - are still there above it all.
