No he's not. He's right on target. The intelligence of the human race is rising. We can more easily see what's true and what's not true, and this will have a multiplicative effect. With an iphone and the net we share the intelligence of the world at all times. It's magic nobody could have predicted. In fact the richest and one of the most computer/tech of all people on the earth wrote a book called The Road Ahead in 1994 and failed to mention the internet. Meanwhile the changes that the net brings us continue to be revolutionary.
Have you ever browsed through a brick-and-mortar store, and wished you had access to Amazon reviews?
Have you ever heard somebody talking about something and immediately fact-checked their ass with Wikipedia?
Have you ever seen something really cool, then taken a picture of it and shared it with your Cellar friends, then had them have a conversation about it by the time you got home?
Have you ever had a really difficult problem at work that you solved by Googling?
Have you ever gotten your news of the day entirely from the Cellar? Did you understand it better than when you got it from the talking heads?
