One of the central ideas behind UNSTABLE is that many of the forces shaping the next 10–20 years are not happening in isolation.
AI and automation, demographic decline, economic pressure, deindustrialization, energy, globalization, supply chains, geopolitical tension, and the future of work are beginning to overlap in ways that may make the coming decades less predictable than the ones many of us grew up with.
I’m curious how other readers see it.
Do you think we are actually entering a more unstable period, or does it only feel that way because we are exposed to more information and bad news than previous generations were?
And if the world is becoming less stable, what do you think people should be doing differently now to prepare for it?
