Bruce LaDuke, Question Scientist, Integral Futurist, and Managing Director of Instant Innovation, LLC in Indianapolis, Indiana talks about Integral Futuring and the three dynamics that contribute to the current state of any society or social division: 

  • Knowledge Advance - The Center is Knowledge Creation,
  • Social Context - The Center is the Balance of Interests and Economy (Includes education, industry, and economic development) and,
  • The Center is Supply and Demand. It is the combination of these three dynamics that creates the national or international social state.

Integral Futuring is a human-based process driven approach to future society. It offers an important alternate paradigm to traditional machine-based artificial intelligence philosophy.
