Everyone Feels Like Something Is Coming...
The Functional Melancholic
464,027 views
A philosophical and introspective look at the psychology behind this weird feeling so many of us seem to have that something is coming, with some existential dread and dark humor thrown in. AI is moving incredibly fast. The climate is changing, and the political and economic future seems harder to predict than it used to. And meanwhile, we're carrying around phones that feed us a nonstop stream of information about all of it. So is something actually coming, or have we just created an information environment that makes us feel like it is? It's probably some combination of the two. Thanks for listening : )

It is here already. It is in motion. It’s not a change that happens in minutes like an earthquake. It takes years, months, weeks……
It’s slow on one hand but when we consider where we were just 6 years ago, it’s happening overnight comparatively speaking.
Wise beloved man.
