It's not directly about current "finance" (as the title says it's about "economy", but of course which will affect finance), and it's a bit "heavy" (almost 2hrs of speech) and I basically skipped the first 10 minutes but the rest is for sure very interesting as e.g. it forces to rethink about all what happened in the remote past and during recent years and shows that a possible "nice" future is possible.
I'm not as optimistic specifically about the availability of IOT-data (in my opinion going to be mostly compartmentalized/proprietary), but in an ideal world it has for sure a huge potential.
Very funny the statement about IBM & the 7 computers, and towards the end the question in Trump-style :)
Summarized, for sure a good input/thoughts/inspiration about the big ongoing changes and all what they might affect.
Cheers

Jeffrey Rifkin's oracular vision of an alternate trajectory to the status quo that obviates an inevitable extinction for humanity. Radical change engendered by three key innovations: satellite internet, autonomy, and decentralized clean energy.
It is worth noting that Elon Musk is working on all three of these ;)
