40 分钟Kevin Kelly calls himself “the most optimistic person in the world.” And he has a lot to say about parenting, travel, A.I., being luckier — and why we should spend way more time on YouTube.
A few weeks ago, millions of people in the UK celebrated a remarkable anniversary.
The queen is the first monarch of great Britain who has ever reached this amazing milestone.
70 years on the throne and still going.
Queen Elizabeth II has become the longest reigning monarch in british history.
She didn't get there entirely on her own.
The queen has a team of advisors known as the Privy Council from whom she can seek advice.
This council has existed in one form or another since the 13th century.
So that's nice.
But how about the rest of us?
We commoners with no access to a privy council, to whom shall we turn for sage advice?
Yeah.
I'm Kevin Kelly.
I'm the senior maverick at Wired magazine, and I like to package ideas.
Okay, I believe he will do.
And when Kevin Kelly says he likes to package ideas, that means what?
I liked to edit things, my ideas and other people's ideas, to communicate and share with others.
So maybe I am a communicator, maybe.
I'm a curator, a little bit of a fortune teller.
Not quite.
I don't use the futurist word because most of what we're doing is trying to predict the presentation.
