Technological progress can fundamentally change our understanding of the economy, work and leisure. It harbours the opportunity to make the future fairer or less fair. I want to enable decision-makers to understand the essence of these risks and opportunities and to act responsibly. At the same time, I want to allay the fears of people who are less familiar with technology so that they too can help shape our technological future. Only in this way can we achieve societal progress that serves all people.
