This document discusses the impact of digital technologies and information communication technology (ICT) on society. It notes that ICT can help reduce the usage of limited natural resources and make life better. ICT is transforming capabilities by enabling real-time processes, flexibility, freedom of time and place, and cost efficiency. ICT also allows for knowledge sharing and open collaboration on new ideas across borders. However, there are also challenges to consider with utilizing ICT, such as the digital divide, bureaucratic mindsets, cyber crimes, and low trust in society. The document argues that ICT usage should not be seen as an added cost, but rather can provide efficiencies and improve effectiveness in life by putting "the world in our hands."
