While some scientific theories take decades or longer to materialize, there are instances where breakthroughs occur much faster than anticipated, highlighting the unpredictable nature of technological progress.

The current moment in tech feels reminiscent of the early days of web technologies, suggesting that we are on the brink of new innovations that could reshape industries.

Many people jump on trends too early; for example, VR has potential, but it's not yet a high conviction bet for starting a company.

The waves of technology are additive, meaning the opportunity presented by AI is larger than previous technological transitions and is arriving much faster.

As technology evolves, one technology often runs out of steam but enables the development of the next generation of technology.

Real trends are characterized by early adopters using a new technology obsessively and sharing their enthusiasm, while fake trends lack this intense user engagement.

You won't get the opportunity to capitalize on new technology if you're just thinking about it; you have to take action and engage with the current trends.

When evaluating new technologies, it's important to consider their long-term viability rather than just their initial hype.

The energy release from these converging innovations will be powerful, but it may take time for this to be reflected in economic statistics, which are still grounded in the industrial world.
