The Institute San Francisco

2023 Existential Hope Day

Science and Technology are rapidly unlocking unfathomable opportunities for our future. Much of our attention is focused on the threats to human existence. Little is focused on ideas about what to aim for instead. But we cannot create what we cannot imagine.

Let’s map both risks and possibilities which lie before us in biotechnology, nanotechnology, neurotechnology, computing, AI, and space technologies.

Format

Explore positive futures for a variety of technologies, and cooperate across future-positive organizations making them real.‍ Discover Foresight projects, such as Existentialhope.com, Gaming the Future, and our Tech Trees. Hear how invited keynotes and fellows are advancing progress, explore our Existential Hope VR Gallery, scent workshops, other aligned organizations’ work, mentorship hours – but most of all, we would love to hear from you.
