The Future of Technology
01/26/2022
Just saw the headline by a "futurist" with the Washington Post predicting the end of smart phones.
To be clear, there will be only 1-2 significant technology inventions for the rest of the century.
Just like the last century.
The last big tech change was around 2011.
The last big tech change in the last century was around 1911.
(The late additions: television - - although they say its concept was created by 1920 - - and the atom bomb, if you consider that a benefit to humanity)
Tele-immersion, or holograms, which I heard about from a tech pioneer about 20 years ago, probably coming.
Everything else will likely be an extension of the World Wide Web. Image: early mock up of tele-immersion at the Univ. of North Carolina.
