Can science solve the problems posed by science? Can a science fiction writer predict the future?
A century after his birth, Isaac Asimov addresses us, men of the future, thanks to the means of artificial intelligence. He evokes his dual training as a scientist and a writer, jubilant to have found the time machine in his own brain, and describes his transformation into a universal pedagogue, delivering all the questions raised by his colossal erudition: robotics, artificial intelligence , overpopulation, rising waters, end of oil, exterminating viruses. Faced with these challenges, he draws from his imagination as a writer the resources necessary for the transformation of the world, demonstrating that literature can guide men in their choices when faced with the challenges from the future.
​​​​​​​Professor Asimov tells us everything, and even gives us the method to understand the rest, if we want to hear it...
