The human race and its struggle
to keep up with technology:
It was a bloodless conflict fought
not with bullets and spears, but
with iPhones and floppy disks.
Now the battle between the haves
and have-nots can begin.
Computers and handsets are
becoming an extension of body
and mind, creating a Cyborg-like
population.
For humans, what used to be this
body of flesh and bone, all that is
now just the center... Being
human is a moving target.
At no time in history has
technology moved so fast. Today
the latest high-tech gizmos can
be passe even before hitting the
shop floors.
In the past -- during the post-
industrial revolution era, for
example -- accelerating technology
has plateaued. So, with the
meteoric rise of new social media
outlets including Facebook,
Twitter, YouTube and Skype,
History suggests the world is
overdue for a slowdown.
this time, any slowdown in the
digital age is a "myth," as
innovation will only press forward
"faster... And faster and faster."
We are not going through a
transition to another faze of
stability, and that is the key
point. People will always be
behind now and that will be a
stress they have to cope with.
You will hear someone say: Why
arent robots washing my dishes
yet???
Technology is changing drastically. No one can really stop it. Its there to stay.
