Came back from my church retreat yesterday and I was trying to catch up on emails. One email from AngelList had this statement. "There’s an ongoing debate whether humans have reached “peak intelligence.”.
Later in the afternoon, I got an invite to join Clubhouse, the hot drop-in platform. I dropped in a few rooms and I just loved the idea of joining and leaving a live audio conversation.
A couple of minutes or hours later, I noticed another trending social app - honk.me. Honk is going viral because it shows what person at the end is typing as he/she is doing so. It's crazy, how thrilling that is.
Thinking of about my day this evening in light of the above. I don't have a direct answer to the debate about whether humans have or will reach peak intelligence. But I know one thing for certain, the human propensity to get bored will ensure innovation never dies.
We will always want to change dishes, fashion, tools, entertainment object/medium etc. We may be going in circles, or as we say repeat history as we see in fashion styles but one thing is certain innovation will never die.
