"Age of Miracles"

Decentralization


Listen Later

The idea is this: the world oscillates between centralization and decentralization, with progress sloping upward through the turns. We’re approaching an era of decentralization. 

This shift from centralization to decentralization is popping up everywhere I look: 

  • Energy: Fossil Fuels vs. Renewables
  • Manufacturing: Globalization vs. Reshoring
  • Manufacturing: Making vs. Growing
  • Science: Government Funded vs. Decentralized
  • Hard Tech: Government Agencies & Incumbents vs. Startups
  • AI: Closed vs. Open
  • Talent: Big Tech vs. Startups
  • Apps: Big vs. Small
  • Media: Substack vs. Journalism
  • Education: Factory vs. Personalized
  • Finance: Big Banks vs. Fintech
  • We go deep on all of that in this episode. 

    But here's the wildest part. That's not my real voice you're listening to. It's my AI voice, created by my friends at play.ht by training a model on a bunch of other audio essays. It's wildly good -- give it a listen.
