Peter Diamandis

In Kyle’s notes, Peter Diamandis surfaces as the author of a LinkedIn “Future of Smart Cities” piece captured in the reading-list material behind The New City — one of several smart-city / city-building sources Kyle was collecting on that theme. The wiki holds only the saved link, not a synthesis of his argument, so the connection is provenance-level: a city-futures author whose work fed Kyle’s The New City notes.

Context: Peter Diamandis is an engineer and entrepreneur best known as the founder and chairman of the XPRIZE Foundation and co-founder of Singularity University. He writes and speaks widely on exponential technologies and abundance (co-author of Abundance and The Future Is Faster Than You Think), which is the lens his “Future of Smart Cities” writing comes from.
