right, are you feeling ready? I'm feeling ready. I'm Amol Rajin. Join me on my new podcast for

in-depth conversations with pioneers and innovators, talking about the trends and ideas that could

help shape and change our future. We are going to be digital citizens of this AI world,

whether we like it or not. From declining birth rates to disinformation online, can they solve the world's biggest challenges?

What I would love to do is go to the transfer and say radically cut the taxes of those with

children. Radical with me, Amul Rajan. Listen on BBC Sounds. I'm Rory Stewart, and I want to talk

about ignorance.

There are known unknowns.

That is to say, we know.

There are some things we do not know.

I will die without having read everything that was written in classical Latin.

There are also unknown unknowns.

The ones we don't know, we don't know.

What is space? How does time work?

You have no experience on which to build an image.

We prize knowledge, and rightly so.

And we think of ignorance as a bad thing.

Please educate yourself.

But I want to make a positive case for ignorance.

Life isn't a climb up a mountain on a set path.

Life is like surfing.

You know, waves come and you're adapting and nothing is settled.
