## Описание

We are grossly underestimating the way things are changing.

Welcome to the information society where it has never been less valuable to be smart about information than today. Who was the 19th president? I don’t know I can just google it on my smartphone and find out, every piece of information in society now can be found at the touch of your finger tips. In the past, a lot of people made a lot of money, made a lot of relationships and had leverage within their circle about being informational smart , but in this information age it has zero value to be intelligent. I think it’s insane what our children are going through at school; they are making them memorize facts that are all in a touch of a button. It kills me to see these children in our informational society memorize things that won’t benefit them in their future. I hope my children are D and F students, because that would give me time to teach them the real shit. The internet and the information age has become the biggest culture shift in the history of humanity. We don’t notice it, because we are living through it, so we can’t contextualise it, but we are grossly underestimating what is happening.

Let me tell you another thing. It has never been less valuable to be smart about information than today. It has never been less valuable. Who's the 19th president? Oh, I don't know. This guy, right? Every in every piece of information, this is a very important point. A lot of people made a lot of money. relationships. A lot of people had leverage within their circles about being informational smart. that has been completely wiped out. It actually has zero value. And so, which is why it's insane what our children are going through in the school system. They're making them memorize facts that are at their fingertips. Yeah. It kills me. And so, I hope my children can be DNF students and that gives me time since they're not going to work on homework for me to teach them the real Yes. Right. And so, you know, I think we're living, again, I keep repeating in this interview, we're living, this is the internet is the biggest culture shift in the history of human beings. We're living through it, so we can't contextualize it, but we are grossly underestimating what's happening.
