The document discusses the exponential future and its impacts. Many jobs like truck drivers, farmers, construction workers and others supporting them may be impacted by technologies like autonomous vehicles and AI. Entire ecosystems will be affected. Emerging technologies like virtual reality, augmented reality, artificial intelligence, bots, voice input and more are converging and the impacts will be felt by everyone including programmers, shop assistants and those in aged care. Exponential bets must be made and a relentless customer focus maintained to respond effectively to ongoing technological changes.
