“To ensure superstupidity is not our future, updating our education system should become an existential priority. Education’s effectiveness should be evaluated on whether it can help humanity become future-ready for our complex 21st century. We should inspire passion, nurture curiosity, emphasize uncertainty, develop range, and use critical thinking to examine assumptions. Most importantly, we need to form new relationships with inquiry, experimentation, and failure (which goes hand in hand with creativity). These features can help us problem-solve out of the most existential risks. Today’s standard knowledge will never solve tomorrow’s surprises.”
