Legendary presentation. Tony has consistency been RIGHT (and often, ALONE) while others ridiculed him. Please keep banging the drum, people DO NOT understand how fast, violent and seismic these disruptions will be.

A butterfly is not a caterpillar with wings. That is an incredibly good quote to explain this transformation.

[@DDD-wt7ly]

Agree I was going to take notes on this updated info but that’s the only thing I came out with 😂. Caterpillars can’t be butterflies just by strapping wings onto it.

And non-dispatchable, variable, unpredictable renewable energy is not like anything that people are willing to rely on, and pay more for. It's like switching from the horse to the buffalo.

[@riley_oneill]

@@RandyTWester People already are paying for it. The combined system of solar, wind, and batteries eliminate variation and unpredictability. Fossil fuels depend on a global market place for fuels. When you can fully self generate using your own equipment you insulate yourself from global fuel markets.

[@MrCparlak]

I have been following Tony for almost 8 years already. He is a visionary person and predicting the future with innovation in existing technologies, not with sci-fi types. We need leaders like him in every part of society, not only in technology.

[@xrayaiz74]

Love the caterpillar-to-butterfly analogy. This is an accurate example, of a good portion, of the mindset of legacy automotive companies around the world. Petroleum has been their 'crack' cocaine for so long, the detoxification process may very well kill most of them. I think this is why many have a high aversion to recognizing the clear benefits of a BEV (battery electric vehicle) over an ICE (internal combustion engine) counterpart. Clearly, Tony is demonstrating that knowledge IS power and that you should be armed with it to navigate the tumultuous periods ahead.

[@Katelynfacts8771]

Great work Tony. Greetings from Ireland 🇮🇪

[@passby8070]

[@cannonskier]

Great guy. So smart. Genius really Thanks Tony.

[@Discoducky73]

The cost S-curve is being led by Tesla, who is well ahead of Tony's prediction and essentially pushing all other BEVs along the curve. And while this is happening, Tesla and other BEV manufacturers, are collapsing demand for legacy ICE and their suppliers. I'd imagine that Tony will talk about this in part #2 which I'm very much looking forward to.

He also recognized that history repeats itself. Fords Project Highland in 1913 was a mindblowing factory with a brand new production platform, that made the price of a car go from 800$ to 240$.Next year 200 other carmakers went bankrupt. No Wonder, Elon have used the same codename in his future plans. Of course not, for a particular refreshed 6 year old model3, as claimed by Reuters, but for the new mindblowing generation 3 platform. 😎

[@igranderojo]

The current Crisis Era was described in book "The Fourth Turning" by Strauss and Howe. Tony is describing the details of exactly how. Strauss and Howe wrote in early 1990s their book. Tony has highlighted S-curves, disruption, specific technology converging, and the consequences.

If cost curves are like gravity, then why is RTX 4080 16 GB $1200+ while GTX 1080 8 GB was $600 in 2016? And why is Tesla Model 3 more expensive today than it was 3 years ago? I also saw PVs and batteries get more expensive this year compared to last year where I live.

[@sonofgondor2371]

You're forgetting about one of the strongest factors to influence price, but necessarily value. One must take into consideration the number of dollars in circulation when comparing a point in time to another. In this case, the number of dollars in circulation today dwarfs that of the number of dollars in 2016.

Everyone who wants to invest in growth stock's needs to listen to tony Seba before doing so. He has a great library of useful uploads which bring the receipts and show his predictions in the past actually happening as he said it would.

[@macrumpton]

Tony gives the impression that Entrepreneurs see the disruption coming and are able to take advantage of their insight, but I think it is more like that the risk takers are constantly trying to upset the applecart, and they generally fail until the conditions are right for them to succeed, and then some of the do. There were plenty of people trying to make electric cars for a century, and when conditions were favorable they succeeded and when the conditions were not right they failed and when the conditions were right again they succeeded again. It is kind of like thinking the winner of a lottery has some kind of special insight that allowed them to win, but that ignores all the other folks who tried to win and failed.

The Europeans have a very shocking and disruptive rude awakening just a short "s' curve away.. I can't wait.

The outstanding characteristics of Tony Seb's analysis is the Observable form-fitting S curves of innovation and Wright's Law overlay on the economies of scaling technical changes. The proof is in the putting of business development.

So how do you manufacture and recharge batteries without fossil fuels, not to mention all plastics and pretty much everything in your life is made with oil? Sorry oil is not going away anytime soon.

[@michaels6331]

@@miketoni1012 You are correct, however a good portion of the supply of oil goes towards energy ie. gasoline, diesel, and other fuels. The shift towards electric vehicles will lessen significantly the demand for those oil products, directly to the consumer, then somewhat shift towards electricity generated directly by power companies. depending on how the renewable energy markets ramp up to supply enough power for the increased demand. Products will definitely be made with plastics/oil, it's the energy markets that are going to take a huge hit.
