Digitization is rapidly transforming the world of work—complexity is growing; speed is on the rise; developments are less and less predictable. This shifts the focus onto the question of what makes human beings irreplaceable in comparison to computers, and in what respects people could be superior to intelligent machines. Creativity, empathy, self-determination and artistic thinking are the distinctive characteristics of human beings. Linked up in a flexible team of lateral thinkers who display courage, think playfully and transgress boundaries—in so-called temporary creative constellations—a person can achieve the unimaginable. A person could defy digitization and innovation and configure society in accordance with his/her own rules. After all, intelligent computers are not (yet) in a position to do networked, creative thinking, and especially not if the members of temporary creative constellations are interlinked in empathy, social responsibility and self-determination.
