But would you want to?
Future Human – How Far Will You Go? zooms in on six technologies that are expected to have a significant impact on our lives in the next 10-15 years.

ENIGMA is a treasure trove of Denmark’s communication history, housing the largest stamp collection and a significant specialist library. It’s a place where past, present, and future converge, offering a journey from the postal service’s inception in 1624 to today’s digital realities.
The museum houses four different exhibition and activity areas, which together depict the Danish communication and media history from the establishment of the postal service in 1624, over mass communication in sound and images, to our time’s digital realities. Past, present, and future under the same roof.
The name ENIGMA, a Greek word meaning riddle, reflects our mission to help decipher the riddles of everyday communication. We even house the world’s oldest ENIGMA machine, a code device from World War II.

The exhibition guides you through what artificial intelligence is and can be used for.
