«It won't happen
overnight, but we can solve some of the world's biggest problems. In the latest
issue of MIT Technology Review, the Long-Term issue, we look at the kinds
of technologies needed to tackle our most entrenched problems.
We examine the things that may happen in the years, decades,
centuries, and even millennia hence, and what
needs to change now to make the future better than it looks
from this precarious moment. And these changes aren't the kinds of Band-Aid
solutions the world has been applying for the past few years. Some of them will
involve questioning long-held assumptions.
Inside you'll find stories on how humanity is stuck on short-term thinking
and why California needs to scrap century-old fire management
policies to fight its wildfires. You'll learn from a top AI researcher about why
the field is just now coming to grips with the very real threats the technology
can pose. And you'll meet an entrepreneur trying to help save the climate by composting human bodies
instead of burying or cremating them».
