In this podcast, we discuss how artificial intelligence and digital development contribute to more accurate predictions and scenario building during foresight studies. In fact, foresight studies, also known as futures studies or futurology, are interdisciplinary fields of research that aim to systematically explore and anticipate potential future scenarios and developments. The primary objective is not to predict the future with certainty but to develop informed and plausible narratives about potential future trajectories. Foresight studies and AI have a synergistic relationship, as AI technologies contribute significantly to enhancing the effectiveness and efficiency of foresight practices.

    Information is among our planet's most coveted resources, calling upon us to examine how it is incorporated as an object of power and domination into national and international political processes. Tensions around this resource arise not only in territories directly controlled by States, but also in contested territories, including the intangible acceptance of these, as occurs in cyberspace. The Russia-Ukraine war epitomizes this. Having "disconnected" Russia and conversely maintain ...
