Technology alone is not enough

As we approach a fourth transformation (according to Robert Scoble and Shel Israel it's How Augmented Reality and Artificial Intelligence Will Change Everything), we face some challenges and questions. I cannot see into the future so its pointless prognosticating. Others far more knowledgable have done and at least concluded that No, the Experts Don't Think Superintelligent AI is a Threat to Humanity. Nevertheless it's safe to say that software is already eating the world and robots and AI are going to play a massive role. I am writing my next trend report on a related subject (post on that here) but am deeply embedded in the here and now.
