    This is the single most significant period in mankind’s history - more significant than the Gutenberg Bible or even the advent of agriculture. It completely amazes me that so few people get that

    I have the same thought Stephen, i'm so excited and grateful to be alive to witness the rise of AI and with it - exponential improvements in all areas of living. It's fucking incredible what we are about to and are witnessing this year and many years to come!!!!

    keywee11 Shouldn't sell yourself short. It begins with cultivating the right mindset. Anyone can learn, if you're committed at least.

    "Technology is a force that takes something that is scarce and makes it abundant" great quote: (this reminds me of Mark 4:20 - 30x, 60x and 100x).

    Great presentation, but terrible editing. We mostly need to see presentation screen of what the guy is talking about, not just look at his face and missing pictures.

    That was my exact take as well. But absent good editing, they could also just provide us with a link to the slides. Most people watching these videos are very *very* familiar with the exponential story (I've heard Kurzweil do the same story at least 200 times). I am always looking for something I haven't seen yet. The graphs with new or updated data should be the stars of the video.

    To be fair, there's only so much to say when you're so consistently right... Like, the normal thing would be to issue a new lecture to make corrections on past errors & make new predictions. But Ray Kurzweil & those who work with him have something like an 86% prediction success rate... so it makes sense that they'd be saying the same thing over & over. Time just hasn't caught up with them yet.

    What happens in the first world countries affects all the other countries and if in USA and Europe close stores because now they all buy in Amazon online and there are already autonomous electric cars and trucks and they hope that they do not they get the economic blow because in Mexico we are behind in technology and much of the field is not industrialized is like WTF. For one electric vehicle that has fewer parts and needs lesser maintenance its fewer parts that needs building and that's so good. Good change.

    They always bring the Human Genome Sequenzing example ... i have yet to see any real world benefit of that. It's the same with their processing power projections. What good is that power if you dont have the software to actually do anything with it. Not saying it won't be there. Just saying: For example my phone now has much more processing power then it needs for almost anything it does. This extra power in a flagship device doesn't translate into a single additional capability compared to a mid range device. Power alone means nothing.

    The benefits of sequencing human genome is not too evident in itself, but it's an important stepping stone and source of information to do incredible things in the future. Imagine the possibilities it opens up to cure genetic diseases and perhaps even aging itself.

    Look at all the processing power people have in their pockets now compared to the 1980's. Has society really improved with this processing power? People have desktop computers almost exclusively dedicated to checking Facebook. I bought my first flat screen TV in 2011 for $600. It lasted about 5 years, thanks to the advancing trend of planned obsolescence. My analog TV cost half as much and lasted twice as long until I just threw it out for the flat screen. The quality of housing and appliances for most people has substantially decreased with time. Taxes and regulations on business have increased with time. We have more people on public assistance than ever. I predict most people will get lazier and become completely dependent on the welfare system in this exponential world. We''ll see who's right. I'm just providing a counter-balance to this hype. Ten years from now, people are going to be wondering why this man was wearing those feminine slacks. Did he see that coming?

    Definitely agree with you! The advance in technology doesn't equate to advance in human behavior. In fact, it's the reverse: as technology progresses, humanity regresses. That is what is missing from his presentation.
