From the New York Times bestselling authors of Abundance and
Bold comes a practical playbook for technological convergence in our
modern era.
In their book Abundance, bestselling authors and futurists Peter
Diamandis and Steven Kotler tackled grand global challenges, such as
poverty, hunger, and energy. Then, in Bold, they chronicled the use of
exponential technologies that allowed the emergence of powerful new
entrepreneurs. Now the bestselling authors are back with The Future Is
Faster Than You Think, a blueprint for how our world will change in
response to the next ten years of rapid technological disruption.
Technology is accelerating far more quickly than anyone could have
imagined. During the next decade, we will experience more upheaval and
create more wealth than we have in the past hundred years. In this
gripping and insightful roadmap to our near future, Diamandis and Kotler
investigate how wave after wave of exponentially accelerating
technologies will impact both our daily lives and society as a whole.
What happens as AI, robotics, virtual reality, digital biology, and
sensors crash into 3D printing, blockchain, and global gigabit networks?
How will these convergences transform today's legacy industries? What
will happen to the way we raise our kids, govern our nations, and care
for our planet?
Diamandis, a space-entrepreneur-turned-innovation-pioneer, and Kotler,
bestselling author and peak performance expert, probe the science of
technological convergence and how it will reinvent every part of our
lives--transportation, retail, advertising, education, health,
entertainment, food, and finance--taking humanity into uncharted
territories and reimagining the world as we know it.
As indispensable as it is gripping, The Future Is Faster Than You
Think provides a prescient look at our impending future.
