Recommendation

This visually engaging documentary renders the Fourth Industrial Revolution in broad strokes, through brief, eloquent interviews with visionaries and cutting-edge researchers. getAbstract recommends the video as a primer on the emerging industrial revolution and as essential viewing for anyone invested in social and technological change.

Take-Aways

  • The emerging Fourth Industrial Revolution combines digital technology with “physical and biological systems,” transforming “what it means to be human.”
  • Simple devices can now access the human mind, granting individuals new levels of self-knowledge. This awareness may start a “renaissance” that redefines people’s relationships to one another, to the planet and to work.
  • The world needs a new economic model that prioritizes the well-being of all humans over fiscal growth. An innovative model called “the circular economy” mutually benefits the environment and economic growth.
