To say that you know something implies a very high level of certainty. I know that the sun will rise tomorrow morning, that I need air to breathe and water freezes at 0 degrees. No one “knows” how society will be shaped in 20 years time, so no we do not know how it will be used and who will benefit.
Or, colloquially it’s used to describe something you just expect to happen. It does not mean that one literally knows. Obviously it’s more tricky with online communication since you don’t know me and don’t see my face.
Sure, in the meaning that everything is uncertain.
