Audio-only versions of Futurist Gerd Leonhard's keynotes

The latest episode in my #goodfutureproject series of conversations, with special guest Mathias Sundin CEO of Warp News https://twitter.com/mathiassundin. Watch the video here: https://youtu.be/WNQIJqaY154 Mathias runs Warp News https://www.warpnews.org/ If someone said, "You are worthless" several times a day, how would it affect you? It would probably make you feel pretty lousy. Now think of the news media that you and everyone else consumes. How do the constant negative headlines impact your perception of reality? Most people have a pessimistic view of the future and of new technologies. One important reason is the negative bias in news media. We believe that humanity’s best days are ahead and that new technologies and science will get us there. Warp News helps balance the negative headlines with fact-based optimistic news about technology, science and human progress.
