Year Zero: How We’ll Run Our Lives in Ten Years’ Time
summary
Predicts a near-term emergence of a consumer year zero timeline that centrally manages every aspect of life — health records, cell-tower logs, credit history, purchases, calendars — stitched by big data into a single life feed. Estimates the market as a trillion-dollar problem with only a few companies positioned to win, warns that personal agents (Google Now, Cortana, Siri now, far smarter later) create inequality and legal gaps around privacy, alibis and data ownership.
