Address given by Govind Nair at the Ethical Culture Society of Westchester in White Plains, NY on Sunday, February 3, 2019.

How might futures model building inform humanist thought and action in a 21st-century global society? What specifically can we learn about the scope and limits of ethical action and human agency from scenario building based on data and analytical perspectives from multiple disciplines?

His presentation will provoke thinking around these issues using illustrative multi-disciplinary modeling results around three separate issues: demographic change, climate change, and the future social impact of artificial intelligence.
