The only way to make this potential info-apocalypse into a utopia is to change our approach to media from a reactive to proactive one. We cannot passively have faith in the stream on our news feeds, default settings, and notifications to guide us. The companies that control these do not have our best interests in mind, and they have broken the public trust. These feeds are designed for one thing: Keep your attention for as long as possible in the short-term and long-term. This business model is fundamentally conflicted with our own life goals.
So how do we find the signal within the noise? The proverbial needle in the haystack? The breakthrough knowledge in a sea of FOMO and distraction? How do we live in an information utopia rather than an info-apocalypse?
In the following section, I’ll propose three solutions:
- 1. Asking yourself a simple question that will help you filter breakthrough knowledge from incremental knowledge.
- 2. Using a new knowledge format that has a higher signal-to-noise ratio.
- 3. Learning a skill that will help you systematically improve at finding breakthrough knowledge.
