it means we need to wake up and redesign society on a global scale ASAP. technology is replacing jobs. we already have robots that can pick CROPS for food we eat. we have robots that can build BUILDINGS (aka shelter). we also have something called the E-Cat which will get rid of our dependence on fossil fuels and it will change the world within the next couple years, i guarantee you this. this will be the hardest transition for the world if our fucking politicians don't fucking wake up.
@markuskentwood or with technology doing all the hard work we humans can focus on advancing. When the technology known as agriculture came out thousands of years ago it meant people didn't have to spend their whole lives being hunter gatherers, therefore they had more time to think. Having more time to think lead to innovation, which all these years later has brought us here. So having robots pick our crops means the children of those farmers can go to school rather than work the fields all day.
I'm one that's pretty excited about new technologies and advances in the world however after watching this video, it's made me scared. Scared that so many of the things I grew up with will be obsolete--books, TV, radio. I'm also scared future generations will become less and less intelligent but that's a whole 'nother thing.
saying that the 25% of Indians with the highest IQ's is greater than the total population of the United States is the same as saying India has a population more than 4 times great than that of the united states. It has nothing to do with IQ. this video is crap.
WAIT A MINUTE. At 0:41 It shows top 10 in-demand jobs in 2010 did not exist in 2004. BUT this video was uploaded in "Uploaded by LeeTurtle2000 on Nov 7, 2008" O_O
Its pretty exciting times. The video gave me a paradigm shift in my outlook, so thank you for that. The status quo, meaning the super rich and powerful, are going to do all they can to control the internet and its messages. I think the internet will be the one thing that finally unifies the peoples of the world and the next revolution may be for a new world order....but a far better one than the corrupt politicians had in mind. VIVA LA REVOLUTION!
Data must be narrowed to Information which must be distilled into Knowledge which when further distilled can become Wisdom. All this data does not actually give humans further Wisdom......knowledge and information yes, but not necessarily Wisdom.
one critical point is missed here: how to manage tjhis surplus of information? it is not the quantity of information that matters..most important is how such huge volume of data is managed!
We have achieved ubermensch, we are indeed, collectively, god, and I can promise you that leaders are already being appointed to help usher in this new age of mankind. Those closest to the ubermensch will have the most responsibilities, and those not yet ubermensch will have the hardest time adapting. Furthermore, this next society will be a society of many, many secrets...
This video is mostly pointless trivia that presents some data while completely ignoring the context.
Why compare bermuda with the usa when the first is a tiny island? it's obvious services are going to be more easily widespread there.
How wouldnt TV get more users than radio when it appeared at a time when americans were more affluent? and why is it compared to facebook which a service and FREE?
And last, whats the point of indians being smarter if they are stuck in a caste-based society?
It is incredible how in the 300,000 years that the humans species has existed that in the past 50-30 years we have far surpassed that at an exponential rate.
what does it mean? it means we need to get the hell off this planet before those higher-level indian babies with their supercomputers and ipods kill us all with google searches and information overload.
After having discovered so many impressive facts through this video, the most frequent comment I see is "what's the song in this video ?"
Honestly, people, I was expecting to read criticisms about these facts or something with just a little bit more insight. Did you know ? Most youtube commentators need serious education.
I wanted to know what the song was too. I have been researching transhumanism for the last two hours and grew a little tired on this video. Although the music is listed, I don't see a problem asking. Is it really hurting you--maybe putting you out because someone asked about the music in this video?
I think I see a case of unnecessary hatred here--coupled with a dash of internet subconcious memes.
(3:15) it is estimated a week's worth of the New York Times contains more JUNK information than a person was likely to come across in a lifetime in the 18 century.
As computer-assisted instruction (CAI) becomes more intelligent the ability to individualize the learning experience for each student will greatly improve.

we still have a lot to learn about how our brain and body works before effective systems can be employed. scientists have replicated parts of the human brain for specific funtions, in some cases they dont understand exactly how its works, but it does the job better than traditional chip architechtures.
don't worry about that man. That just means they can make more calculations faster. As long as computers have no conscience or emotion. They will never have a motive to attack.(Humans barely know how our brain gives us emotion. How could we possibly give computers emotion.) Best example of this is the movie Pinocchio. He is a puppet that can talk and move but can't make his own unique decisions. the cricket has to do that for him.
computer no matter how advance can never exseed the actpation of a human brain

The main Idea that come to my mind watching the video is that life speed has changed and quite everything is dominated by dynamics.
People's attitude to change and think out of the box is the real competence required to be future's leaders: lead the change!

we don't have to worry much about the computational abilities (or otherwise) of technologies as long as we selectively merge ourselves with them.
Thereby becoming what we call cyborgs.
This has already begun.
