| The use of AI and digitalization in many areas of everyday life holds great potential but 12 also introduces significant societal transitions. This paper takes a closer look at three exemplary 13 areas of central social and psychological relevance, which might serve as a basis for forecasting tran-14 sitions in the digital society: (1) social norms in the context of digital systems, (2) surveillance and 15 social scoring, and (3) artificial intelligence as a decision-making aid or decision-making authority. 16 For each of these areas, we highlight current trends and developments and then present future sce-17 narios that illustrate possible societal transitions, related questions to be answered, and how such 18 predictions might inform responsible technology design. |
