I really enjoy all of your writing and this post is really nice; I especially liked this quote:
In fact, wouldn't it make sense that the returns will mirror, to some degree, the progress made overall?
I think we are closely approaching the point where things will start to show the progress being made - sort of a virtual "free the slaves" moment. Yet at this moment I don't think many of us can imagine a world where people are not doing menial tasks for their subsistence. Like any bad relationship that at least pays the "bills" we can't yet imagine the lifestyle of living in a truly free and democratic society. I believed this is eventually where we are headed if the trend towards decentralization continues.
Yes exponential thinking is not something that many of us do naturally. Hence, when looking at progress, it usually bypasses us. Yet, we see the results in the world of computation and what took place over the last 40 years.
This is now extending into many different areas of life. Another 5-10 years will be stunning for a lot of people who are not looking at these fields from this perspective.
