Jack Ma explained governments should pay more attention to education providing the young generation with more opportunities to develop creative skills.
“The technology revolution is coming, and nobody can stop it… If we keep on teaching our kids the way we have been teaching them for over last 100 years, we will keep them from getting jobs over the next 30 years,” the entrepreneur said.
Ma also said data technology is currently replacing information technology, stressing that governments across the world should pay more attention to people under 30.
“We are entering a new world, and very few people really understand how powerful it is, how revolutionary it is… The world is shifting from IT to DT. DT is not the digital time its data time.
Digital time is an upgrade version of IT. DT is totally different from IT,” he said.
