Terence McKenna, a visionary far ahead of his time, proposed the concept of "hypernovelty"—an accelerating rate of emergence and complexity in the universe. He believed that as time progresses, novelty (new, unpredictable events) would speed up, eventually leading to a singularity—a moment of ultimate transformation. Looking at today’s world, it’s impossible not to see McKenna’s ideas reflected in the accelerating pace of innovation and disruption across virtually every field: Technology: Fro...
