WELCOME TO 2040

Welcome to a journey into the future. Ill ask you to enter into a thought-experiment, well venture 10-15 years into the future and try and make sense out of it.

The biggest story of our timeinternet of no things#internetofnothings

Im here to speak to you about internet of NO things. The point when internet becomes part of our built environment and therefore ceases to be. Yes, we think that its likely that as soon as in already in 10 years time smartphones and internet have disappeared.

Internet of NO things?

So what is internet of NO things? First lets start with a simple exercise.

When is the last time that you watched your mobile phone?

Now?10 seconds ago?1 minute ago?5 minutes ago?10 minutes ago?

Who has not had a look at their phone today?

We look at our phone every 6th minute

This is obviously crazy. So we disrupt ourselves every sixth minute. And off we go, theres a red dot in Facebook, someone commented something, then email, then snapchat, then instagram, then twitter. A bit if Facebook again and finally close it of with a small look at reddit. And start again in six minutes.

every6 minutes

In ten years time we will never look at our phones.

But not as crazy as to claim that in ten years time most of us will never look at our smartphones because smartphones dont exist.

But not as crazy as to claim that in ten years time most of us will never look at our smartphones because smartphones dont exist.

WHY INTERNET OF NO THINGS IS HAPPENING?

But not as crazy as to claim that in ten years time most of us will never look at our smartphones because smartphones dont exist.

There is tech worth hundreds of thousands in ANY smartphone.

Size PriceFunctio-nalities

The reason behind internet of NO things is simple. The strongest long term trend in technology has been the drop in size and price of technology. Things get smaller and smaller and cheaper and cheaper.

Same time as the size and prize of computing devices drops their functionalities increase. Eventually leads into a hyperconnected planet.THE law of HYPERCONNECTED PLANET

Now imagine iPhone getting smaller and smaller and cheaper and cheaper and incorporating more and more things, before it becomes so small and cheap.

Smart Environments

This might sound a bit sci-fi, but its actually reality already. Were right now experimenting with these technologies in our Naked Approach research programme. We have labs for printable electronics, which means you can print things such as solar cells, soon touch screens and so forth. Some labs we work with are in energy harvesting. It means that none of these need an external energy source, but they will generate their own energy. Then theres sensor labs that create sensors for measuring everything from what to movement to particles in the air and more at an extremely low cost. When you put these to together something wonderful happens. You get totally independently working small computers do the same things and more than the current computers do.

As technology keeps developing faster and faster all the technologies that are now in a smartphone will be the size of piece of paper and the price of a piece of paper as well.

What we have to understand is that when technology get developed enough it dissappears and ubiquitous enough, it ceases to be seen as a technology. Look around you, theres amazing technologies already around us. This house is a very typical disruptive technology, not to mention this collection of houses and streets and other infrastructure. They are also technologies. Our clothes are a technology, the food on the tables is the end product of masses of technologies form fire to other means of cooking. These are all technologies that have sort of disappeared, they are on the background and nobody (outside dedicated professionals) thinks of them as technologies.

Bits and atoms are joining already and its creating a lot of value. Already.

This is a horrible future!

This is a wonderful future!

The really amazing thing behind this is energy harvesting. The sensor will have to work without a power source. They will harvest their energy from their environment. Heat, light, movement and radio waves. These are the four things that energy will be harvested from. This is also critical to the vision of internet of NO things. It will either happen without energy, or it will not happen at all.

5 KEY TENSIONS OF THE HYPERCONNECTED PLANET

Tension 1: Well-being VS planetary boundaries

Tension 2Increased human capabilities for all VS More for the some

Tension 3: Converging markets VS fragmenting structures

Tension 4: Liberation from labor VS End of work

Tension 5: Liberties VS Security

Where to now?

We have two roads to choose from.

1. Conservative agenda. Conserve our current structures with laws, regulations and incentivising.

2. Progressive agenda. Solve the pressing problems of the humanity with this new technology, and harness and keep the values we have.

The Progressive Agenda
