With this comes changes in some of our most basic and ancient strategies for surviv ing\, managing\, and thriving.In his new book\, \;Everyday Chaos\, Dav id Weinberger points to accepted ways we work on the Internet that in fact undo our old assumptions about how the future works: rather than attempti ng to anticipate what will happen and prepare for it\, the Internet is tra ining us to flourish by creating more and more unfathomable possibilities. The Net has also lowered the cost of operating without principles\, hypot heses\, or even hunches about what will work.AI in the form of machine lea rning now is providing us with a model -- a model of models -- \;of ho w the future happens\, with implications that range from how businesses ma ke decisions to how we think about strategy\, progress\, explanations\, mo rality\, and even the nature of meaning itself.These changes can be "metap hysically terrifying\," Weinberger says\, but ultimately are an evolutiona ry step of a Copernican magnitude.About DavidFrom the earliest days of the Web\, David Weinberger has been a pioneering thought leader about the Int ernet’s effect on our lives\, on our businesses\, and most of all\, on o ur ideas.
