Pardon the Disruption: The Future You Never Saw Coming($14.95Value)

Description

Pardon The Disruption high-lights the exponential advances in technology that have disrupted the legal system and the economy over time – but those changes will pale in comparison to what is about to occur! The book is written in two parts: the first part discusses the effect – past and projected future – on the legal system; the second part, on the economy. The two come together in a conclusive scenario that changes everything!The conclusions reached by this trio of authors are not only possible or plausible, but likely to occur in the future. These inveterate trend watchers see a confluence of trends that will lead to legal, economic and governance changes that will have dramatic effects on our lives.Using both real life and engaging fictional stories to illustrate their compelling points, this trio of authors not only reports on major trends occurring in the legal and economic realms, but uniquely projects where these exponential advances of technology will take us.NO OTHER book on the market has made these connections and projected future outcomes like this one! "an invigorating discussion about technology's capacity for reshaping life on Earth." - Rick Docksai, Deputy Editor for The Futurist Edit "The conclusions reached by this trio of authors are not only possible or plausible, but likely to occur in the future." - KurzweilAI | Accelerating Intelligence.Books Edit This disconnect between governmental attempts at job creation and retention through spending and other stimulus - and the virtually opposite goals of those who are expected to do the heavy lifting that solves the unemployment problem (the private sector) - is undoubtedly the most confounding economic enigma today. And it has not been even remotely discussed. I can't emphasize this enough. The public sector - all the politicians from President Obama to Congress to Governors and state houses to local mayors and council members - all identify "job creation" as their highest priority. The public at large agrees and holds the officials responsible for addressing the high unemployment rate. And none of the above believe that the best means to do this is to undertake yet more deficit spending to hire a meaningful number of citizens in government jobs. So the efforts at "job creation" and lowering unemployment are left to the private sector. And the last thing the private sector wants to do is to add more payroll expense. Guess what? It's not working. Go figure. So what happens when a company or a country gets to General Artificial Intelligence - GAI? The computers will take over design and write their own code while, inventing, exploring and discovering how the Universe works... Think of six thousand years of advancement occurring in only six months and you can see the vast implication this will hold. Whoever gets there first will win. No other country would be able to catch up once one country establishes this hold. This is the one race we must win. This is not like inventing a better cross bow or a better fighter jet to get an advantage in war. This is for everything. There is no second place. We cannot afford to have Presidents banning stem cell research and genetic manipulation as a way to pander to special interests groups that have a fundamentalist belief system that is anti-modernity.
