I am rereading a #book I got in 2016 that was talking about the future tech. It had a big impact on me at the time and explained numerous high level concepts around information creation, propagation, and ecosystem as well as dove into specific examples. I pretty much ignored its predictions on AI at the time, but rereading it now it is obvious the author nailed it!

Just look at this prediction when he says everything will be "X with AI". In 2016. He also thinks that Google will be the AI company in 2026, and it's unimaginable to him that they won't be the leaders in the field. Well, wrong on that one. He could not have predicted that current CEO would fumble that direction so badly.

@laimis yeah, Kevin Kelly has blown my mind with his books, starting with Out of Control - https://kk.org/books/out-of-control . There are many things that he has said or written that I cannot unsee anymore about techne.

@saint yeah! I love how you said it "cannot unsee anymore". Once you get what he is saying, you start to notice it everywhere.
