Will robots soon be the cause of the next turning point in human evolution? Will a new industrial revolution have good, or catastrophic consequences for our everyday life? Will we all lose our jobs over the next ten years? 

What are robots already capable of today, and what will they be doing in the near future?

What future do information technologies have? What potential for transformation do they contain? How and to what degree will our education, health services, consumption and economy soon change?

And will robots finally use Esperanto? Will they even help its spread?

Dangers, risks, threats – but also unimaginable achievements, assistance, rescue and savings.

What will “win” in the end? In which direction will the future lead us? Will humanity even survive the 21st century? In this lecture we will discuss all of that (and a little more).
