YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

The authors of The Second Machine Age foresee that the next stage of the digital era will radically alter the balance of minds and machines, products and platforms, and the core and the crowd. They argue that both business and personal lives depend on mastering the demands of this new playing field, and they show what skill sets and attitudes we will need to thrive in the coming years. In addition to co-founding MIT's Initiative on the Digital Economy and being the only people named to both the Thinkers 50 list of the world’s top management thinkers and the Politico 50 group of people transforming American politics, McAfee and Brynjolfsson serve as principal research scientist and director, respectively, at the MIT Center for Digital Business.
