Deep Future: Creating Technology That Matters

For decades, the tech industry has overwhelmingly been just a software industry. Silicon Valley’s big win was disrupting Yellow Cab. What about disrupting General Motors? General Mills? General Electric? Energy, water, waste, food, manufacturing, construction—things every human on Earth relies on—have made incremental progress over the last century but have not seen the kind of exponential improvements we take for granted in computing. Meanwhile, scientific progress continued, invention kept advancing, but these technologies were considered too hard by the tech geniuses preoccupied with shoving more ads into your prefrontal cortex. Now is the moment when all of this changes. Seismic waves signaling the tectonic shift are underfoot. We call it Deep Tech—the advanced technologies we will use to solve the biggest problems in the world. Deep Future is about giving you the mindset, the tools and the reasons for creating technology that matters. View Less
