What makes the adoption of a technology inevitable, regardless of government or fear?
- Solves a big human, societal, or global problem.
- Makes the experience much easier for the masses.
- Makes the experience much better for the masses.
- Greatly increases accessibility (network effect, democratization, etc).
- Drastically reduces cost.
- Pisses some established institutions off
A technology doesn’t have to include all of these, but the more it does, the better its chances of adoption.
You can choose to ignore cryptocurrency (or the blockchain behind it), genetic engineering, and artificial intelligence, especially if you’re my age. But these three things are coming. Maybe outside the US (at first). We don’t know what they ultimately look like, but they’re coming. They tick the boxes above.
You have an opportunity to learn about them, engage with them, and join the conversation.
Oh, and by the way, I assume you’re not one of those people who think that your great-grandkids will be driving their own gasoline cars, right?
