Milton Friedman holding a masterclass on how everything in the global economy is intertwined.
Seemingly small things like a pencil holds a worldwide footprint with thousands of people working together, just to get a pencil in our hands.
Simple notion, yet extremely complicated.

To my understanding, it is now clear that humanoid robots will walk, move, and act just like a human in the next two years.
Their faces will not look fully human up close, but from a few meters — it no doubt will.
This means we’ll have clones among us soon…

The global cloud market to overreach USD 400bn this year; a doubling since 2021.
Will likely reach a trillion in the next five years, much due to the emergence of AI.

This is the future of home delivery.
Autonomous vehicles will plummet the cost of delivery, and it could very well be to neighborhood delivery stations like these — interlinked right into our homes.
Electronics, clothes, and groceries; everything will be on-demand.

7-Eleven will get out of massively pricy rental contracts and go all-in on autonomous mobile stores, beginning in a couple of years.
Square meter cost will collapse while revenues will increase as more locations can be reached.

Buying or renting a product will soon be like ordering an Uber; super fast and real-time.
We’ll have autonomous ”next mile” vehicles that will explode the peer-to-peer sharing economy.

Unitree Robotics’ Go2 robot dog is quite something.
You can buy it on Amazon these days. Soon everywhere.
The robot operates using a high-performance computing unit, 4D LiDAR, and depth sensing to map and respond to its surroundings.

In the next 10 years, our lives of mobility will go from owning to access of cars
The future vehicle fleet will be horizontally operated, fragmented in construct, multi-purposed, & run by access monetization

AI is no doubt poised to be the double-edged sword of our generation.
It holds the promise to eradicate hunger and pollution — but also amplifies the potential for conflict and cyber warfare.

Could robot-tentacles from the ceiling be the end-game for kitchens?
Here’s a regular bakery kitchen.
Instead of humanoid-robots doing the baking, maybe a central robot with 10 tentacles is the most efficient solution?
It would likely do everything at the same time to <10% of human cost
