It's refreshing to some hear optimistic things about the future. So much negative bombardment from mainstream media these days. You have have to seek out positive news about the bigger picture, which Peter Diamandis articulates so well.
My question to XPRIZE: is there a follow-up to prizes, i.e. scaling out the winning solution. For example, are we about to send out hundreds of autonomous vehicles to map out the ocean floor?
Peter talks about solar energy and decries coal as dead. First, solar panels require huge amounts of rare earth metals, 95% of which come from China. The process to extract these rare earth metals is heavily polluting and toxic. Second, solar energy is radically intermittent. You can't depend on energies to run a society that disappear for days at a time. Third, whatever we in North America and Europe do to reduce coal energy or use will not reduce global emissions as China and India's coal growth will offset anything Europe or North America does. Until you can solve the problems associated with renewable energy, I'm sticking with the energy that's cheap, plentiful, and reliable: coal, oil, and natural gas. If coal is dead, then it needs to be resurrected.
The problem is the same for a circuit board, the solution is capacitors! Maxwell capacitors (bought by Tesla) combined with lithium batteries; allows quick charge and controlled discharge of high power voltage and current. This is the answer carrying us forward. Coal is very important for nano-dots!!
@@healthandfreedomcoaching3526 Yes, you need to do some "buzzword" stuff, then you need to contact right people, then you must persuade them with what will be end product making big buck. Imagine, that in central europe or east asia right now exist sciencist which are making absolute cutting edge research. How can they as pure researchers in ie state university reach US enterpreneur and offer him his team and research for funding? :-) Yes there is some way, but does they have money to dedicate to some PR team to do that? Well no... and so end story is always same, they create something like contact lenses (true story) and its just given away to western multinational company almost for free. So sciencist has no money to do other researches and so on...
Peter always deliver great talk. ขอบคุณครับผม

Great question. +1
i think it is.. if not its impossible to scan 98% of the ocean with one robot in next decade..
Is that A-train from the Boys?
This interviewer guy is trying so hard to keep up😅 but he could only do it as a motivational speaker (that's easier 🤣) Great job man.

Nuclear is clearly what you meant to say 'is the cheap, plentiful, reliable energy source'.
But you live in the real world he doesn’t

At the end... Impossible Burger is Great! (NOT!!! - It;s GMO loaded crap!).

I missed it. Would love to meet Peter in person and hear him talk. His enthusiasm is contagious!
I thoroughly enjoyed that. Thankyou
he is 58 omg
where is the capital? sounds like an exaggeration imo
There is big abundance of capital, sadly you need to be PR mage to got it, nothing to do with actual ability to solve problem.
@@prolamer7 PR mage?
