I saw this on CrunchNotes a few days back, and it got me thinking…
I am happy to see that there is more recognition of the ‘information overload’ problem. Though my worry is in a different direction - that of the increased push for Job Specialization.
I remember being told that it was hard for our parents to imagine TV’s when they where kids, and today computers and interactivity have clearly changed work and entertainment. How are things going to change in the next 20-30 years?
And beyond pure technology, as the planet is made smaller politics will likely bring surprises as well…
So the million dollar question is: how can we be prepared for this change?
