You should not even try.

When Ray Kurzweil talks about the singularity, he means a point in time in the distant future. The day of the singularity is when artificial intelligence will be superior to the human mind on all levels for the first time. From that time on, we will no longer have a chance to understand the world’s rapid changes.

As far away as this day may be for humankind, it is already today no longer possible to keep up with all relevant changes in the world for the individual human being.

We all live our lives as if the world is still as we remember it. But that is not the case.

Technological and social progress has long since assumed a pace that all of us, as individuals, can no longer keep up with.

Even the Generation Z children are no better off in this respect than the Millennials or the Baby Boomers. Or is there a young person here somewhere who has a good understanding of all the following issues:

- Artificial Intelligence

- machine learning

- Blockchain technology with all its implications

- cryptocurrencies

- climate change

- cancel culture
