[00:06:00] Imaginez une personne qui vient d'avoir son bac. Un, deux ou trois ans plus tard, elle n'a pas trouvé quoi faire de sa vie, et elle continue de trainer autour de son lycée, tandis que de moins en moins de lycéens qu'elle connait continuent d'aller en cours. Dans les faits, cette situation devient de plus en plus glauque. Je pense que c'est essentiellement la situation dans laquelle nous sommes par rapport aux révolutions technologiques que nous avons entreprises.

De la mĂȘme maniĂšre, si auparavant nous Ă©tions enthousiastes concernant la sortie du nouvel iPhone, nous le sommes beauvoup moins maintenant concernant les promesses de chaque nouvelle suite d'applications et de fonctionalitĂ©s.  


[00:06:51] So I think what's important to think about is how optimistic we once were. What did we think we were going to do? I think we thought we were going to be curing diseases. Wouldn't it be great not to have lost anyone in your family from cancer when we declared a war on cancer in the early 1970s? What did we think we were going to be doing with energy?
