Found out about Kevin Kelly through Tim Ferriss and I'm glad I did... nice talk

[@lindasimunek3400]

Kaku, Kersweil, and now my 3rd “K”, Kelly-have become my gurus about the future!!

[@ch012]

Just bumped into Kevin Kelly's video and he is mind openner.

[@kevinkelly1529]

Ladies and gentlemen, I hereby present you with an hour and a half of pure gibberish.

[@avantgardenovelist]

starts at 04:00

[@wisdom-for-life]

Wow, he has a unique and interesting perspective.. He's gone meta with his thinking.

[@patbonny1175]

He could have been more humanitarian in his conclusion that "vanity trumps privacy". Maybe the more optimistic sentence "honesty trumps privacy" ? "Owning" our privacy is actually burdensome, after all how much of our active lives require privacy or find it anything but unnecessary? "You will own nothing and you will be happy."

[@Mars.-yh8dp]

privacy is not really keeping...in the world when we use social media ...we are almost naked... 😶

[@janfabisiak2753]

Great talk with a LOT of food for thought

[@georgeflitzer7160]

Collaborating not competition!

[@JT-kl7ty]

Great talk, very informative.

[@garykline9234]

Nice video but thankfully I'm near the end of my span!

[@conjurehoodoo8529]

Excellent, optimistic, WE ARE NOT LATE. Thank you Kevin Kelly

[@patbonny1175]

He just, literally said 'there are more questions than answers' :)

[@Mars.-yh8dp]

I think …some answers not now

[@michaelbrian8458]

Chat GPT was not created yet when this talk was done

[@jonathanl3941]

someone told me about this I don't really like taking exams so I had a hard time finding a career to move up in and the issue was that I needed to watch him to get a sense of where I could go into only complaint is this video is really back logged I wanted to hear what he has to say in 2022

[@Mars.-yh8dp]

you can follow his Twitter

[@justtestingonce]

“I don’t really like” sounds like an entitled millennial.

[@CandidDate]

Artificial intelligence just broke ground with Chat GPT and GPT 4, in 2023. This will be a game changer in the future to come.

[@dlbattle100]

Kevin Kelly at 4:00.

[@patbonny1175]

Flow used to be experienced as 'tickertape'.

[@kilian4770]

Isn't moor's law invalid now? Or am I misinformed?

[@12344321717]

👍🙏

[@AaronMartinProfessional]

Tim Ferriss brought me here ✌️

[@georgeflitzer7160]

What about deception?!

[@patbonny1175]

You will own nothing and you will be happy.

[@Alex-UK369]

GUSTAVO NOBOA 😆😆😆

[@johnssiroid4439]

This guy's dangerous because he's so affable.

[@lava12.23]

Quick, hide your children!

[@ChideNorms]

These guys are evil and are for sure getting the rope before this is all over

[@georgeflitzer7160]

I don’t like a lot of this!!!
