Technology Quotes Quotes

“Some humans strive to squander precious time while complaining about the advancements of technology, blinded to the fact that it can grant them the luxury of more moments with their cherished ones. Embrace innovation, for it offers opportunities to learn and bask in the warmth of love, rather than merely wasting away in the endless abyss of mindless media consumption.”

“What if we pour all our resources into building a smart city, only to realize that we have forgotten to cultivate smart minds? Our obsession with smartphones and mindless entertainment has led us astray, preventing us from truly experiencing the beauty of the world and connecting with others. Let us not trade genuine human connections for a virtual reality, for it is through true smiles and heartfelt encounters that our cities truly come alive.”

“Every machine has artificial intelligence. And the more advanced a machine gets, the more advanced artificial intelligence gets as well. But, a machine cannot feel what it is doing. It only follows instructions - our instructions - instructions of the humans. So, artificial intelligence will not destroy the world. Our irresponsibility will destroy the world.”

“Religious fanatics and Political fanatics, yet we want Nigeria to be developed. A nation filled with blind people. See developed nations dealing on facts and figures, discovering cures for diseases, building people with great minds through science, proposing theories, debating over them, testing them and proving them thus using such theories to invent and innovate technologies. Here in Nigeria, we are deceiving ourselves, fasting and praying. Pointing fingers at people who won't make heaven yet they don't wanna die. A place where asking questions is a crime and a sin. They act as if they are holier than the pope. Greedy and blind people.”

“There are currently 3.5 billion smartphone users in the world. Pretty much every one of those phones does something for its owner that they used to do for themselves. Before all the apps, algorithms, and websites we have today, we used our brains to do things like remembering and recalling (phone numbers, calendar events, and other facts). We also figured out how to get places without GPS and we made more of our own decisions about what to buy instead of clicking on ads and making impulse purchases. While there certainly are benefits to having tech- nology take care of many of our needs, we should be aware of what we might be losing. What types of thinking are we no longer doing on our own? Are there unintended consequences to letting computers (and the corporations behind them) do so much of our thinking?”

“We can freely celebrate the surge of innovation, the rise of AI, the unprecedent speed of technological advancement and the generational breakthroughs in medicine, science and industry, but if we neglect to address the complex questions of IP, Data Privacy & Protection, we would have conquered the sea, yet leave a giant monster lurking at the bottom.”

“As the Fourth Industrial Revolution continue to evolve, the winners will be those who are able to quickly adapt to change, upskill themselves and fully participate in entrepreneurship and innovation-driven ecosystems, providing new business models and ideas rather than those who can only bring certificates to the table or only offer low-skilled labor.”

“Disrupt Yourself Or Be Disrupted is a book that provides you with ready-to-implement pragmatic blueprints for personal transformation, unconventional thinking and helps you look at the world through a fresh lens, one that turns assumptions and conventions upside down.”

“As we boldly enter the new decade, we need to make sure that we do so in a way that fosters individual talents and preserves the entrepreneurial spirit rising in Africa; as young people are rising as risk-takers, inventors, disruptors and thought leaders.”

“In the past, businesses were built on the brick and mortar model, transactions were done in triplicate, using carbon paper, and success was based on educational background and certificates. Fast forward to today. The internet, connectivity and emerging technologies have completely changed the game. To compete and survive in this new era requires a disruptive approach.”

“At some point, something or someone is going to disrupt your entire life. Shouldn't it be you? The ability to disrupt yourself is critical in today’s volatile economic environment that's changing faster and more furiously than ever.”

“In a world where everything is connected, where machines can talk, learn and mimic humans, a world where machines are employable, where performance is at its peak, innovation at its finest and job loss at its highest. There is only one spot left to transform and that is YOU.”

“Disrupt Yourself Or Be Disrupted provides answers that translate far-future thinking into insights and strategies to stay relevant and unlock opportunities in the Fourth Industrial Revolution.”

“Our world is changing fast, but all is not lost in the race to automation. With the rise of the robotic, the focus is shifting from people power to intellectual capital. With or without a certificate, a disruptor’s mind can foresee limitless opportunities in the newly emerging economy. You can create your own path using the power of the internet.”

“Many of us bought into society’s social contract of success, which states – go to school, get good grades, get a job and live happily ever after. But this doesn’t work anymore. At the most basic level, disrupting yourself will demand that you breach this contract of social conditioning and conformity.”

“Put your future in good hands – your own! Personal disruption means not waiting for the government or your family members to hand something to you. It means rethinking the parameters of your life, and perhaps even of your community, maybe even your country.”

“Human labour does not stand a chance against disruptive technologies. Artificial Intelligence can handle insurance claims, do basic bookkeeping, manage investment portfolios, do legal research, and perform HR tasks.”

“Machines do not require leave, lunch breaks, smoke breaks, toilet breaks or any breaks for that matter. Robotics do not come late to work. Robots are drama free, they don’t organise protest action and they don’t complain about workload.”

“Robots cannot be injured or killed in the line of work, and can be used in situations far too dangerous for human risk. Robots are more hygienic and deliver a finished product at a fraction of the time it takes a human. Faster output leads to increased sales. No matter how cheap human labour may become, buying highly skilled robotics is still cheaper as one pays only once.”

“The Fourth Industrial Revolution is ushering in a new economic era, exposing new sources of value and growth. New opportunities, businesses and markets can be created as a result of this new economy.”
