Disruption rarely arrives from the direction an industry expects. It came for retail from a bookseller in Seattle, for taxis from software engineers who had never driven one, and for photography from a camera company that had already invented the future but couldn't bring itself to use it. Motley Fool analyst Rachel Warren talks with Jeffrey Cole — founder of the World Internet Project, director of USC's Center for the Digital Future, and author of Disruptors at the Gate — about the patterns that repeat every time an industry gets blindsided, why most CEOs are structurally prevented from doing what it takes to survive disruption, and what investors should be watching right now as AI, quantum computing, and a wave of landmark IPOs reshape the landscape.&nbsp;
