Brookings envisions a future where innovations in AI and emerging technologies serve humanity’s highest aspirations, promote global prosperity, and strengthen democratic institutions
The future of AI is not inevitable. Artificial intelligence is transforming how we work, learn, govern, and organize economies. But its rapid evolution often outpaces our ability to understand its full impact. Leaders face unprecedented challenges in building governance frameworks, while organizations must make critical decisions amid uncertainty.
