Imagination Age
Proposed era of humanity after the Information Age
Imagination Age
The Imagination Age is a theorized period following the Information Age where creativity and imagination become the primary engines of economic value (in contrast, the main activities of the Information Age were analysis and rational thought). It has been proposed that new technologies like virtual reality and user-created content will change the way humans interact with each other and create economic and social structures. The AI boom of the 2020s increased the ubiquity of information. The relevant neologism for the period is the Fourth Industrial Revolution, popularized in 2016 based on transformative developments shifting the nature of industrial capitalism. In theory, the value of "imagination work" done by designers, artists, et cetera, will rise above rational thinking as a foundation of culture and economics. One conception is the advent of an immersive virtual reality (the metaverse or the cyberspace).
