The conference examined the future of society through the lenses of individuals, relationships, time, and values. Discussions highlighted the emergence of a "quantum society" with conflicting narratives and identities, the empowerment and disempowerment of individuals through technology, the varying perceptions of time, and the importance of foundational narratives alongside the desire for multiple narratives. The report also presents three "breadcrumbs" to navigate Society 4.0: high-touch interactions, synchronicity and deceleration, and participatory governance. These insights aim to provoke re-examination of the world and its futures, considering the trade-offs and tensions present in current and future societies. \\ \\ (Generated with the help of GPT-4) \\ =====Additional Viewpoints===== Categories: {{tag>2035}} | {{tag>English_publication_language}} | {{tag>Singapore_geographic_scope}} | {{tag>development}} | {{tag>disempowerment}} | {{tag>economy}} | {{tag>education}} | {{tag>employment}} | {{tag>empowerment}} | {{tag>foundational_narratives}} | {{tag>fourth_industrial_revolution}} | {{tag>governance}} | {{tag>growth}} | {{tag>high-touch_interactions}} | {{tag>individuals}} | {{tag>innovation}} | {{tag>national_identity}} | {{tag>participatory_foresight}} | {{tag>quantum_society}} | {{tag>relationships}} | {{tag>society_4.0}} | {{tag>strategic_foresight}} | {{tag>time_perception}} | {{tag>values}} ~~DISCUSSION~~
