The proposed Essay:
The Age of One-eyed Leaders
By: Kaveh Javani

Be careful, you are being controlled, monitored, judged and even led. By a huge decentralized integrated network with about 4.68 billioni nodes all over the world. It’s just a jump from the knowledge economy to the age of Gs, 3, 4 and now 5, artificial intelligence and data science.
Nowadays, technology is influencing global cash flow as this trend can be recognized from Paulo Coelho tweet on May 23, 2019, “I will change my iPhone for a new Huawei. Not because I was not happy before, but because all of a sudden, the brand of your phone became a political statement.”
Advances in distributed ledger technology and cyber-security are increasing the connection and automation capacity every day. The whole aspects of human life are being influenced practically and the new cultures are being created.

Trump is fighting with China over 5G and consequently artificial intelligence future as the power of changing the world. U.S tries to be a central point for controlling and directing this transformative change.

But let’s look at data, the heart of this virtual world war. Big data should be stored, analyzed and feed these breakthrough technologies meanwhile the data flow has a fully decentralized approach in its development path. It means it’s impossible to define a focal point to control and manage it. This is the key point of justice and trust in the new technological world.

I am afraid if technology won’t serve the politicians in the next upcoming years as they are looking for and even reversely will dominate them.

As its decentralized nature, digital universe can recover the lost power of mass in circulating world economy. It can take close to one and half billions of people in China to live in a new virtual world with new brain architecture.

Our children generation is growing up with our mobiles and tablets. Their minds are under attack of a wide range of flowing data in social media every day. Their beliefs, thinking styles, their views and of course their future culture can be unknown features which can be discovered and designed by the science of data analytics. The children are learning in a common virtual environment with its own specific values. They will come soon to build an integrated world with common concepts and fully different thinking style. Mankind has never experienced such a homogeneity worldwide lifestyle.

Technology is smart and intelligent now. It can feel the people, everyday more than yesterday. Who can feel the people, he will lead the people.

Controlling the whole contacts, feeding daily news to your mind every moment, monitoring your location, recording pictures, voices and videos from everything around you as well as hundreds more applications just is being done by a small robot in your hand. The smart phone is clearly managing us much stronger than our political leaders.

As Marc Bernioff, states, “We are in a leadership crisis. We are not in a technology crisis; we are in a technology revolution. We are going to see technology shifts and changes on a scale that we have never seen on this planet.

” It is a global story and not an American phenomenon. Singapore simply dethrones U.S. as World’s most competitive economy by relying on high-tech.

5G can lead a border-less world without permission of politicians. It is a resurgence of economy and culture.

China is still afraid of opening the doors for crypto-currencies but applying such decentralized based currencies, is very likely to challenge the dominance of US Dollars in financial transactions and perhaps an end to the emperor of US dollars. The current approach of US will conduct China to shake hands of the blockchain based financial technologies friendlier. The codes easily and gradually are being replaced with traditional money as German central bank is warning the banking industry to be cautious over digital currencies. Facebook now has over 100 employees working on crypto project although the US president said he’s not a fan of Facebook’s Libra, and demands digital coin companies seek a banking charter.

The data flow is running everywhere. The decentralized world emperor is in  connection with the people one by one.

Neither US nor China, this game has a third player, 4.68 billion smartphones everywhere and available for our children, are in the way to be the one-eyed leaders of the world, maybe by appearance of 6G.
