" "less than five years after Burt Rutan spent $26 million beating the aerospace giants at their own game, DIY Drones took them down with volunteer labor, a few toys, and a couple hundred dollars' worth of spare parts. "It's radical demonetization," says Anderson, "a true DIY story about using open-source design to reduce costs a hundredfold while keeping ninety percent functionality.

The cost of reasoning is collapsing 10x faster than the cost of bandwidth did in the 90s. Society is moving from "AI as a tool" to "Intelligence as a Utility." When reasoning is too cheap to meter, the only bottleneck left is the physical world. This is why Optimus is the most important product in history. It’s the bridge from digital abundance to physical reality.
Your microbiome looks perfect,” Google tells you. “Also, blood glucose levels are good, vitamin levels fine, but an increased core temperature and IgE levels…” “Google — in plain English?” “You’ve got a virus.” “A what?” “I ran through your last forty-eight hours of meetings.

The human brain evolved in an environment that was local and linear. Local, meaning most everything that we interacted with was less than a day's walk away. Linear, meaning the rate of change was exceptionally slow. Your great-great-great-grandfather's life was roughly the same as his great-great-grandson's life. But now we live in a world that is global and exponential. Global, meaning if it happens on the other side of the planet, we hear about it seconds later (and our computers hear about it only milliseconds later). Exponential, meanwhile, refers to today's blitzkrieg speed of development. Forget about the difference between generations, currently mere months can bring a revolution. Yet our brain — which hasn't really had a hardware update in two hundred thousand years — wasn't designed for this scale or speed. And if we struggle to track the growth of singular innovations, we're downright helpless in the face of converging ones. Put it this way, in
