In recent decades, most innovation has come from a single sector (information technology) and a single place (Silicon Valley). Walter Isaacson's The Innovators and Peter Thiel's Zero to One shed light on how that happened and what drives innovation more generally.

interesting article, with a nice theme for the conclusion of the Schumpeter's Heirs bigger article, focused on the digital era growth, with examples like Twitter and Facebook/Meta. an interesting quote regarding a business -headcount is an odd way to determine its social value- which means that, especially in the digital era, impactful things can be created through autonomous systems even more than before.
i thought the entire overall article Schumpeter's Heirs was quite good, i would recommend it.
interesting
