After writing my book for seven years, it was amazing to get such emotional and positive feedback on my first keynote speech with Homo Stupido.
SOME POINTS from the speech: • Are we intelligent enough to handle AI? No! BUT, AI will force us to improve our intelligence! When we don’t have a choice we can do magic by exploring our capabilities. • Do we really deserve this planet? • Peace will never be a stupid idea. • Our language functions as an algorithm for behavior • Do we have a choice to not be stupid? • I believe AI could make us smarter and kinder.
Thanks to the audience, Stefan Petersson, David Holm and the rest of the Dream Team at AIM North 2022!
Not in a million years did I think that my book, ONE, could inspire peace. But readers have told me that the book can lead to a better understanding of people and society (which can end wars).
I originally wrote the book to start a consumer revolution. And today it is consumers, through social media, who are demanding nations to end wars. I have thought about updating the book, but now I realize that the content could be the DNA for change and to build a better future on. So the thing I have changed is adding the word “peace” to the title: ONE: A Consumer Revolution for Peace.
In order to inspire peace, I want to give the whole book away for free. My humble hope is that its DNA will inspire and build a revolution for peace, so that one day soon we can be ONE WORLD! Download the ONE book for free here (PDF).
I have told many colleagues that Stefan is by far the most curious adult that I have ever met. He asks “Why?” repeatedly until he gets to the real root of a problem, challenge or opportunity. He approaches situations with an unbiased approach, and inspires teams by offering alternative perspectives that challenge the “truths” that we all develop over time as a result of experience. Stefan has worked closely with our sales and marketing team at Bio-Works over a 15 month period as an inspirational speaker and coach, helping us to find our inner sharks. Together, we have workshopped a number of ideas on how to identify, attract and retain new customers, and the results speak for themselves. (Just look at Bio-Works Investor Relations page to see our performance.) I warmly recommend Stefan to any team looking to sharpen its commercial skills. If you cannot honestly answer the question “Are you a shark?” with a “Yes”, invite Stefan to a meeting and hear what he can offer. CEO Jonathan Royce, Bio-Works
