Technology Moving us into the 21st Century
Self-driving cars, automation in the food services industry, package deliveries by drone, virtual reality, utility fogs and nanotechnology. These technologies are unfamiliar to many of us but are already in use. Fitness trackers such as Fitbit and the Apple watch will one day benefit the user’s overall health by recording data that can determine cause of disease. Medical science will collect mass data from these devices to show when ailments start or how they can predict disease.
2024 will introduce a new course of evolution as these technologies become more commonplace. Sensors will be everywhere, monitoring every element of our lives. Corporations will target us and seduce us to buy goods and services tailored to our individual wants and needs. It is the telemarketing of the future and we will become more and more desensitized as we’re bombarded by this ongoing mercantile attack.
Smart culture will arrive in full force as electronic devices control even the most mundane tasks. As with all the good and the bad, it will steer us into a technological whirlwind. The possibility of life extension and cures for disabilities and disease will become closer to reality. Some believe this new evolution will bring us closer together and provide opportunities. A little of both would be a great start for a great new year.
