The concept of “Time to Build” is a popular rallying cry in the tech industry, especially in Silicon Valley. However, it’s important to recognize that our future is constructed gradually from the imperfect decisions we make in the present. Our actions today may have consequences that are not immediately apparent, and sometimes what we choose not to do can be just as impactful as the actions we take.
In our Build issue, we explore these themes in depth. We investigate the potential impact of the AI boom on robotics, examine how our decisions today shape our future, and cover a range of topics such as the efforts to replace the International Space Station with private structures and the implications of generative AI on user interactions. One article discusses how AI was expected to enhance police bodycams but failed to deliver on those promises, while another looks at the transition towards a fully decarbonized world powered by renewable resources. This is just a snapshot of the content available in the magazine, and we invite you to subscribe to explore the full range of stories.
