The right information enables you to make the best possible decision in both the professional and personal spheres. It is of strategic importance.
With the 7 stages of information (from orality to artificial intelligence) and the doubling of the amount of data produced on earth, following Moore's Law to a greater or lesser extent, it's time to be discerning.
We live in a world known as VUCA or BANI, that is to say, complex and ambiguous, where we need to act by extrapolating certain hypotheses and weaving links between widely varying fields of knowledge. We need to redefine our relationship with information, the fuel of the 21st century. It's crucial to understand the foundations of the great civilizations and why they declined. What will the world look like in 50 years' time? What role will France and Europe play? What impact will the digital revolution and AI have on our societies? What new power relations are linked to data and digital platforms?
