Readers are invited to imagine Lucidus Society, coinhabited by \u003ci\u003eHomo lucidus\u003c\/i\u003e and DI, organized around abundance, fairness, and peace.

It offers frameworks for building resilience in body and mind, cultivating meaningful relationships, excelling in learning and vocation in an age of disruption, and preparing for life alongside Tutelary Digital Intelligence (tDI). It also explores the deeper pursuits that will sustain meaning once scarcity no longer dominates human concerns.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf you wonder what the rise of DI means for your life, your children, or the world you live in, \u003ci\u003eBecoming Homo lucidus \u003c\/i\u003eis both a guide and an invitation: to endure until 2035, navigate the turbulent transition to 2045, and prosper in lifespans that may extend for centuries and more.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMin Ding \u003c\/b\u003eis Bard Professor of Marketing at the Smeal College of Business; an Affiliate Professor in the College of Information Sciences and Technology at the Pennsylvania State University; and an honorary Research Fellow at Judge Business School, University of Cambridge.
