The Three Wise Monkeys

Hear No Evil, See No Evil, and Speak No Evil (Kikazaru, Mizaru, and Iwazaru)

I particularly like this popular Japanese pictorial maxim because it visually represents some of my beliefs.

  • Hear No Evil would be “Listen to understand, not to interrupt”
  • See No Evil would be “Assume positive intent”
  • Speak No Evil – “Do not criticize, condemn, and complain”

Cinemax

Cinemax Blagoevgrad is a place where I watched many blockbusters. It lost its computer club a decade or two ago, and now lost its A.

I hope it gets the A back.

I believe we can plan the future and forecast the impact of our changes without committing to a prognosis how the future will look like. Any negative prediction would be fortune telling, and any positive prediction would be wishful thinking.

So, given that I don’t want to predict my own future, here’s some educated guesses about the future.

  • Everyone will be pretty pissed by how much AI we added everywhere but the AI bubble would still be inflating. There will be AI washing machines, AI refrigerators, and AI toilets in Japan, and they’ll not work better than the regular ones
  • Most Silent/Boomer political leaders who dominate the current scene will be out or on a painful way out and no longer taken seriously
  • Electric cars will become more mainstream
