To me, the tipping point, at least in the US, was in the 70s. There's going to be huge transformations in our lives. So it's happening more rapidly, I think, than our grandparents. AI is going to provide some of those conveniences where people are in repetitive jobs that don't stimulate them. It's going to help in education too. Educate is an area where we're in a rut and that needs to completely change.
