Despite of the extension of Sapiens’ frontal cortex and the forecasting ability of the mathematical models it develops, in many senses Sapiens is a baby-species [1]: it uses words before knowing their meaning, experiments with tools before assessing the con- sequences, destroys entire worlds before understanding the reason for their very exist- ence. It is on the verge of leaving the planet Earth, it has gained control over biological, emotional and willpower knobs and yet the ‘big question’ is: Is Sapiens ready for it? If not, how can we get prepared? If yes, what is the toolbox we will carry along?

Abstract
Despite of the extension of Sapiens’ frontal cortex and the forecasting ability of the mathematical models it develops, in many senses Sapiens is a baby-species [1]: it uses words before knowing their meaning, experiments with tools before assessing the con- sequences, destroys entire worlds before understanding the reason for their very exist- ence. It is on the verge of leaving the planet Earth, it has gained control over biological, emotional and willpower knobs and yet the ‘big question’ is: Is Sapiens ready for it? If not, how can we get prepared? If yes, what is the toolbox we will carry along?File in questo prodotto:
