Peter Diamandis: ‘There has never been a better moment to be alive than TODAY’

Peter Diamandis is the founder of the XPRIZE Foundation and Singularity University. His work focuses on leveraging exponential technologies to solve global challenges and extend human capabilities.

The media should spotlight humanity’s daily innovations rather than inciting fear, Peter H. Diamandis said in a post on X.

“The media should focus on all the outstanding achievements humanity creates daily,” wrote Diamandis. “Instead, they’re focused on fear-mongering tactics. There has never been a better moment to be alive than TODAY.”

Diamandis has long argued that exponential technologies are driving rapid advances in health, energy, education, and abundance—yet mainstream narratives often emphasize crisis and decline.

He frequently highlights breakthroughs such as genome editing, artificial intelligence, and clean energy as evidence that global well-being is rising faster than many realize.

Peter H. Diamandis is a physician, entrepreneur, and futurist. He is the founder of the XPRIZE Foundation and co-founder of Singularity University. He holds degrees in molecular biology and aerospace engineering from MIT, and an M.D. from Harvard Medical School.
