It took 5500 years to get to the printing press. 400 years later, the first computers would help us land on the moon. Today, everyone carries in their pocket a supercomputer 100,000x more powerful than the one on Apollo 11. And now, we are literally merging our brains with computers to unleash a symbiosis between us and AI. This rate of advancement is leading to what is called the singularity, a point where technological growth becomes uncontrollable and irreversible, resulting in unforeseeable changes to human civilization. Futurists predict this to happen in the year 2045.My great friend, Hannah, made that awesome flower of life bracelet I am wearing in the video, check out more of her crafts https://www.instagram.com/the_herb_creations/?hl=enSong at the end: Lunch Time by Keni Can FlyGet the After Skool Kid's Book - Why Don't Country Flags Use The Color Purple? - https://www.amazon.com/Dont-Country-Flags-Color-Purple/dp/0578489244 Get in touch via https://www.afterskool.net/ Please support on Patreon - https://www.patreon.com/AfterSkoolFollow on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/afterskool100/?hl=en and Facebook https://www.facebook.com/afterskool100Thank you!
