Futurist Jim Carroll

"Too many people focus on 'what is' rather than 'what could be'" - Futurist Jim Carroll

I'm in Georgia, where later today, I'll speak on behalf of a corporate group on the topic of the future of healthcare. (Before that, I'll be hard at work studying the nature of turf science, particularly concerning the actions of a small spherical object as it encounters the turf after being struck by a long object, particularly when the turf in question is quite dormant. There is much to learn.)

I digress.

The photo for today's image comes from my keynote for the American Association of Orthopedic Executives, and I'm speaking to them about the emerging reality of 3d printed body parts - knees on order via a Web site. A crazy idea? Not really - it's a fast-emerging reality. They needed not to just think about what is today, but would be tomorrow!

I'll walk through several slides having to do with the science of healthcare and medicine, the acceleration of new forms of treatment, and other issues. It's an interesting time to be covering this type of material from the stage, given that I'm doing so in a country where the very science of healthcare is under attack.

Even so, one of my jobs is to help the group - all involved in the health benefits community - understand the big sweeping trends and ideas that provide so much potential for society. Such as the statement, "What we did for heart health in the 20th century, we can do for brain health in the 21st century" from Dr. Deepak Chopra, an integrative medicine advocate

I've got several slides with these big, bold ideas or observations in my deck.

All around the idea of thinking big about tomorrow, not thinking small about where we are today.

Futurist Jim Carroll has been speaking about the future of healthcare for 25+ years, and has seen a lot of the ‘big crazy ideas’ he’s predicted from the stage become real over time.

#Schützenhilfe aus China ? Wenn ausgerechnet China im #USA - #Europa - #Ukraine - #Konflikt plötzlich Schützenhilfe leistet, so hat das durchaus #Potential, dass man nicht unterschätzen sollte. Eine willkommene #Gelegenheit, mit den Chinesen
positiv zu verhandeln.

( #HighlyEducated ) #workers ??

Isn't that #code for #SuperSmart #Indispensable and #HighDemand ??

Or, in other words,

#physicists #scientists & #surgeons ??

I'll go out on a limb and say that they'd rather #work for their #home #countries #strengthening their #communities #resolve rather than for a #fascist #socioPath looking to put #collars around #shiny #SmartPeople to #harness the full #potential of the #DeathStar

They may never be allowed to leave!

#ki bietet ein riesen #Potential, das steht völlig außer Frage. Es steht derzeit gesellschaftlich aber gar nicht im Raum, wo Abgrenzungen stattfinden müssen noch welche #Gefahren durch die KI ausgehen können.
Dem missbräuchlichen Einsatz sind nach wie vor alle Türen geöffnet. Wenn #Unwahrheiten von #Trump schon für bare Münze genommen werden, wie steht es dann um KI in Bild und Ton? Das wird noch eine gewaltige #Herausforderung für uns alle werden!
