I still have a bit the feeling that technology uses our fears

Do you still have this kind of fear about technology?

Yes, I'm stubborn and I'm old, you said that too

the problem is not that you are old...

(Thanks God Bossari that this is the last episode)

I mean, now we have to look at the new resources

The resources!

a practical example is an italian guy, one of the most intelligent persons of our country

and in fact he is ready to go abroad

How strange!

His name is Federico Pistono, even the newspapers talk about him

"brain drain" they wrote

even if it's not true because he's working also in Italy

but he will go to work in a section of NASA which is in the Silicon Valley

he is the representative of a modern and revolutionary way of living in the way I was explainying you

so, don't be afraid

don't be afraid

he used the crowd funding system to collect money in order to write a book

I have also funded him in a small part

Nice, very good

(applauses)

Look how Bossari reveals himself at Lilit

I wanted to support his message

This is a very nice thing

And this young boy has already written a book?

He is 26 years old

He is really very young!

What is this book about?

It is about how robot will steal our job, but we don't have to be afraid!

(laughing)

No no, so I am right even if I'm not going to the Silicon Valley

Ok, I know that in this term it seem a disaster

but the reality is that we still have a way of thinking

typical of the XX century, the concept of the stable job

but in his forecast automation will substitute man, especially in the toughest jobs

and unemployment won't stop to increase...

it will reach the 30% BUT we will live better

because for the first time we will shift our knowledge towards

a better quality of life

I know you didn't understand anything

I can see it in you face

No, no I understand but I can't see how unemployment can bring happiness

I'm not going to tell you that...

he is going to explain you, because I also met him on a chat

he prepared a message for you and Lilit's viewers

perfect!

Hi Debora, I understand your fear about technology

and the direction that technology is taking

we are destroying our planet

and soon robots will steal our job

But we can also look at this as a great opportunity

We can move away from the concept of work and economic growth

in which we work for 9 hours daily, 5 days per week in the same place

and move towards a society in which we will work less to increase our quality of life

instead of continuing to increase the economic growth

and then increase our happiness and human relatonships

we can finally transform our society into a society of ideas exchange

instead of the monetary exchange

real progress happens when ideas have sex

For the first time in our history we can transform our planet in few years

we are the first generation which has this privilege

we must use it, It's our turn!

Federico Pistono

(applauses)

I fell in love with this boy

progress is made when ideas have sex

Fantastic, bravo!

I finish saying one more thing: he is going to NASA now to bring some ideas with him

there is only one condition: the ideas must involve and help at least one billion of people on this planet

and they must be turned into reality in 10 years

There will be the world's best brains, together with our Italian

At this point I bow and I shut up

I had it all wrong

You convinced me, thanks

(applauses)

The only thing I want to say, as far is the last episode is that

I hope that you could be in my future

because you really opened my mind, thanks

Thanks

(applauses)
