Dear Readers, We live in a remarkable era of rapid technological advancement, where innovation is reshaping our world at an unprecedented pace. From artificial intelligence to renewable energy, emerging technologies are driving transformative changes across various sectors, promising to revolutionize the way we live, work, and interact. Artificial intelligence (AI) is a prime example of a groundbreaking technology that is already making a significant impact. Machine learning algorithms and deep neural networks are enabling computers to learn, reason, and make decisions like never before. AI is being employed in fields as diverse as healthcare, finance, transportation, and entertainment, revolutionizing processes, improving efficiency, and unlocking new possibilities. The Internet of Things (IoT) is another revolutionary concept that is steadily permeating our daily lives. By connecting everyday objects to the internet and allowing them to communicate and share data, IoT is creating a seamlessly interconnected environment. Smart homes, autonomous vehicles, and industrial automation are just a few examples of how IoT is reshaping industries and enhancing our quality of life. Advancements in biotechnology and genetic engineering hold the promise of tackling some of the most pressing challenges in healthcare, agriculture, and environmental conservation. Gene editing technologies like CRISPR-Cas9 have the potential to cure genetic diseases, increase crop yields, and preserve endangered species. The ability to manipulate DNA is opening up new frontiers in scientific discovery and paving the way for a more sustainable and healthier future. Renewable energy technologies are revolutionizing the global energy landscape. Solar, wind, and hydroelectric power are becoming increasingly affordable and efficient, driving the transition towards a clean energy economy. With each passing day, we are moving closer to achieving energy independence, mitigating climate change, and ensuring a sustainable future for generations to come. Blockchain technology, initially popularized by cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, is now being recognized for its potential in transforming various industries. Its decentralized and transparent nature offers new possibilities for secure and efficient transactions, data management, and supply chain optimization. Blockchain is poised to disrupt finance, healthcare, logistics, and other sectors, driving efficiency, reducing fraud, and fostering trust. These emerging technologies are not just isolated advancements; they are interconnected and synergistic. The convergence of AI, IoT, biotechnology, renewable energy, and blockchain holds the potential for even more profound transformations. Combined, they can create smart cities with optimized energy consumption, personalized medicine tailored to individual genomes, and sustainable ecosystems that benefit both human society and the planet. However, as we embrace the promises of emerging technologies, we must also acknowledge the challenges they present. Ethical considerations, privacy concerns, and the potential for job displacement are all aspects that require careful consideration. As society navigates these transformative waters, policymakers, researchers, and citizens alike must work together to ensure responsible and equitable deployment of emerging technologies. The future is being shaped by the incredible potential of emerging technologies. As we witness their integration into our daily lives, it is imperative that we approach their development and deployment with responsibility, foresight, and empathy. By doing so, we can harness their power to create a better, more sustainable, and inclusive future for all. Sincerely, Dr K Parish Venkata Kumar Mr.Prasad Devarasetty Dr.Muralidhar Vejendla Dr N Raghvendra Sai Dr.K Gurnadha Gupta Dr P Dileep Kumar Reddy

Technology advances are making tech more . . . human. This changes everything you thought you knew about innovation and strategy. In their groundbreaking book, Human + Machine, Accenture technology leaders Paul R. Daugherty and H. James Wilson showed how leading organizations use the power of human-machine collaboration to transform their processes and their bottom lines. Now, as new AI powered technologies like the metaverse, natural language processing, and digital twins begin to rapidly impact both life and work, those companies and other pioneers across industries are tipping the balance even more strikingly toward the human side with technology-led strategy that is reshaping the very nature of innovation. In Radically Human, Daugherty and Wilson show this profound shift, fast-forwarded by the pandemic, toward more human—and more humane—technology. Artificial intelligence is becoming less artificial and more intelligent. Instead of data-hungry approaches to AI, innovators are pursuing data-efficient approaches that enable machines to learn as humans do. Instead of replacing workers with machines, they're unleashing human expertise to create human-centered AI. In place of lumbering legacy IT systems, they're building cloud-first IT architectures able to continuously adapt to a world of billions of connected devices. And they're pursuing strategies that will take their place alongside classic, winning business formulas like disruptive innovation. These against-the-grain approaches to the basic building blocks of business—Intelligence, Data, Expertise, Architecture, and Strategy (IDEAS)—are transforming competition. Industrial giants and startups alike are drawing on this radically human IDEAS framework to create new business models, optimize post-pandemic approaches to work and talent, rebuild trust with their stakeholders, and show the way toward a sustainable future. With compelling insights and fresh examples from a variety of industries, Radically Human will forever change the way you think about, practice, and win with innovation.

People are using the future to search for better ways to achieve sustainability, inclusiveness, prosperity, well-being and peace. In addition, the way the future is understood and used is changing in almost all domains, from social science to daily life. This book presents the results of significant research undertaken by UNESCO with a number of partners to detect and define the theory and practice of anticipation around the world today. It uses the concept of ‘Futures Literacy’ as a tool to define the understanding of anticipatory systems and processes – also known as the Discipline of Anticipation. This innovative title explores: • new topics such as Futures Literacy and the Discipline of Anticipation; • the evidence collected from over 30 Futures Literacy Laboratories and presented in 14 full case studies; • the need and opportunity for significant innovation in human decision-making systems. This book will be of great interest to scholars, researchers, policy-makers and students, as well as activists working on sustainability issues and innovation, future studies and anticipation studies.

Looking for ways to handle the transition to a digital economy Robots, artificial intelligence, and driverless cars are no longer things of the distant future. They are with us today and will become increasingly common in coming years, along with virtual reality and digital personal assistants. As these tools advance deeper into everyday use, they raise the question—how will they transform society, the economy, and politics? If companies need fewer workers due to automation and robotics, what happens to those who once held those jobs and don't have the skills for new jobs? And since many social benefits are delivered through jobs, how are people outside the workforce for a lengthy period of time going to earn a living and get health care and social benefits? Looking past today's headlines, political scientist and cultural observer Darrell M. West argues that society needs to rethink the concept of jobs, reconfigure the social contract, move toward a system of lifetime learning, and develop a new kind of politics that can deal with economic dislocations. With the U.S. governance system in shambles because of political polarization and hyper-partisanship, dealing creatively with the transition to a fully digital economy will vex political leaders and complicate the adoption of remedies that could ease the transition pain. It is imperative that we make major adjustments in how we think about work and the social contract in order to prevent society from spiraling out of control. This book presents a number of proposals to help people deal with the transition from an industrial to a digital economy. We must broaden the concept of employment to include volunteering and parenting and pay greater attention to the opportunities for leisure time. New forms of identity will be possible when the "job" no longer defines people's sense of personal meaning, and they engage in a broader range of activities. Workers will need help throughout their lifetimes to acquire new skills and develop new job capabilities. Political reforms will be necessary to reduce polarization and restore civility so there can be open and healthy debate about where responsibility lies for economic well-being. This book is an important contribution to a discussion about tomorrow—one that needs to take place today.

The instant New York Times bestseller! A Wall Street Journal Best Science Book of the Year! A Popular Science Best Science Book of the Year! From a top scientist and the creator of the hugely popular web comic Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal, a hilariously illustrated investigation into future technologies -- from how to fling a ship into deep space on the cheap to 3D organ printing What will the world of tomorrow be like? How does progress happen? And why do we not have a lunar colony already? What is the hold-up? In this smart and funny book, celebrated cartoonist Zach Weinersmith and noted researcher Dr. Kelly Weinersmith give us a snapshot of what's coming next -- from robot swarms to nuclear fusion powered-toasters. By weaving their own research, interviews with the scientists who are making these advances happen, and Zach's trademark comics, the Weinersmiths investigate why these technologies are needed, how they would work, and what is standing in their way. New technologies are almost never the work of isolated geniuses with a neat idea. A given future technology may need any number of intermediate technologies to develop first, and many of these critical advances may appear to be irrelevant when they are first discovered. The journey to progress is full of strange detours and blind alleys that tell us so much about the human mind and the march of civilization. To this end, Soonish investigates ten different emerging fields, from programmable matter to augmented reality, from space elevators to robotic construction, to show us the amazing world we will have, you know, soonish. Soonish is the perfect gift for science lovers for the holidays!
