summary

Claims that cheap sensors plus near-zero costs of storing moving and computing data create a global, queryable record of cause and effect. Describes building passive sensing (cameras, pans, GPS, genome maps) and anonymized datasets, mining them for surprising correlations that trigger targeted experiments and drug trials. Predicts billions of actionable associations, automated personalized recommendations and prevention, and a planet‑scale collective memory for the planet that makes everyone effectively wiser than any individual before.
