A Distilled View of Life to 2030 provides a view of the major driving forces shaping the next decade. It highlights the declining economic weight of the old industrial world (OIW) and the rise of emerging economies. Economic responses include upgrading human resources, automation (AI), and innovation. Socially, there are increasing divisions in the OIW, with challenges to the existing social model. The emerging economies may have different attitudes, leading to further divides. Energy provision and environmental concerns are crucial, while food supply is unlikely to be an issue. The text emphasizes the potential for both positive advancements and potential disasters resulting from societal shifts.
