In the current technological landscape, people fall into two groups: scramblers and ostriches. Scramblers try to leverage technology without understanding its risks, while ostriches ignore its relevance. Both groups share a common desire for the rapid pace of change to slow down so they can comprehend it, but that is unlikely to happen in the era of constant novelty. This perpetual newness can lead to indecision and entropy. To combat this, individuals must learn to embrace uncertainty by making continuous small decisions while staying calm. This approach is crucial in facing upcoming technologies like artificial intelligence and generative biology, which will significantly impact various industries, businesses, and individuals. The key is to steer into the slide, acknowledging the lack of clear cause-and-effect relationships in an interconnected and unpredictable world.
