In this episode, Nikesh Gosalia talks to David Worlock, who started one of the first online publishing services in the mid-80s. David gives his take on how different access to information is today and how it will evolve in the near future. David calls this “The Digital Revolution”. He explains how AI will help obtain information, how metadata is a critical factor, and what role “nanopublishing” will play.

David Worlock is a Cambridge History graduate. He was CEO of the pioneer development of EUROLEX (1980–1985), the UK’s first online service for lawyers. In 2013, the Professional Publishers Association (PPA) honored him with the George Henderson Award for lifetime achievement for his work in publishing and information marketplaces.
