Jamie Metzl has spent much of his career exploring how emerging technologies are reshaping medicine, intelligence, and human life itself. In this video, the futurist and bestselling author argues that the most consequential story is not artificial intelligence alone, but the evolving relationship between people and the technologies they create.
From precision medicine and genetic engineering to the risks posed by powerful new tools, Metzl returns to a central question: What values will guide what comes next? His answer is that technology cannot make that choice for us. The future, he argues, will depend on human imagination, judgment, and our willingness to build progress around the values we most want to preserve.
