Great insight into our future
Reviewed: 05-19-23
Well written and well read. Very good break down of artificial intelligence beginnings and where it may be going. Some parts were beyond my understanding, but mostly gave me a better understanding on the subject. I like the positive outlook and agree that it is within our collective power to make the future with intelligent machines a wonderful world.

Story
You may be surprised to learn that microchips are the new oil—the scarce resource on which the modern world depends. Today, military, economic, and geopolitical power are built on a foundation of computer chips. Virtually everything—from missiles to microwaves—runs on chips, including cars, smartphones, the stock market, even the electric grid. Until recently, America designed and built the fastest chips and maintained its lead as the #1 superpower, but America’s edge is in danger of slipping, undermined by players in Taiwan, Korea, and Europe taking over manufacturing.

Good history of the Chip

Good history of the microchip and where we may be going. A bit long at times but that goes with the subject. I learned a lot from listening.

Our world seems to be experiencing stagnant economic growth, climatic deterioration, dwindling natural resources, and an unsustainable level of population growth. The world is doomed, they argue, and there are just too many problems to overcome. But is this really the case? In Fewer, Richer, Greener, author Laurence B. Siegel reveals that the world has improved - and will continue to improve - in almost every dimension imaginable.

I am a conservationist and do believe that humans are causing some degree of global warming. Siegel shows us an educated, realistic view of our civilization. Where we started and where we can possibly progress to from here. It is refreshing to hear someone say that we are better today than yesterday and that’s a good thing. We are moving in the right direction. We simply need to adapt and change along that way as we always have. Good listen!
