Lesson Beginner Stage 7: Software & Gear November 2020

Contents of the video

All right, take this on board. Now first of all this video is not DJ related. Well actually it is but it isn't. Now let's imagine they are CDs and their records. In fact they are records over there and CDs behind me. But let's imagine there's loads of books there as well. So I have broached this subject before but I'm going to elaborate on it because I feel it's very important. Now in the palm of my hand I can have Alexa and it's a small little device. Imagine there's actually a mini rig but it's probably no different in size than that. There are different shapes and sizes but I can sit there and I can ask Alexa anything and I'll get the answer or an answer. Now that's fantastic isn't it? I can also say well play me a track and that track will be played. So if you think about it,

Why have all of those records and all of those CDs if I can have something played just by saying I want it. Isn't that great? It means no need for all these records, no need for all those CDs, throw them all away get rid of them. But I believe I said this in my last video maybe in a certain amount of time when you do not have any hard copies of your music all of a sudden you do something wrong the system says you can't listen to music anymore we're going to stop you because there will be voice recognition and face recognition so matter where you are, where you go, the music will stop. It might even get to the stage where you're in with a group of friends and nothing will play because you're there. So all your friends will want you to go away because they

Want to listen to some music. Now that may be very very far-fetched but it's feasible and possible. So I want to know what the weather's like in Japan now. I'll get the answer but let's imagine in a few years time, 10-20 years time maybe after I'm dead and gone I don't know tomorrow I don't really know but I truly believe there will come a stage when you won't need any books you won't need any libraries or anything like that because everything will be in the palm of your hand you'll be able to ask any question and it will be answered. But then again will you be able to believe the answer that you're given or will you even believe it even though the answer that you're given might not be the truth. You see this is the crazy thing about technology and also this is the crazy

Thing about being controlled because eventually I believe there will be a time in the future when you'll ask a question and you will be given the answer based on the answer that they want to give you, not the truth. Okay? Think about it, practice and enjoy. Thank you.
