I’m not a doomer, but I also kind of look at it this way. I was born in 1978 and I no longer live in the same world.

I don’t look at it as doom but just as a period of very rapid change. As the Chinese saying goes, living in interesting times is a blessing and a curse.

I don’t know what happens next, which is both interesting and scary especially when I think about my kids. They could end up living in a collapsing failed state (or worse) or in a post-scarcity technosphere or something I am not imagining.

"May you live in interesting times" is explicitly used as a curse.
