What you think about the future of technology?
In my opinion technology is getting obsolete very quickly. For example just few years ago people were using GPRS in their mobile, then they shifted to Edge Technology then now a days people are talking about 3G and 4G/LTE Technology.
Same applies to all kind of technologies. First people were watching TV, then LCD, LED  now OLED, Curve, 3D and 4D.
What you see after 20 years ?

That happens because technology has always experienced exponential growth, there was a time when the intervals between one technology and it's updates were too long exactly because there wasn't other support technologies which could help making the process faster, but as more and more tech is invented, they all start supporting each other (example: modern cars are result of multiple tech and discoveries.. Starting from the wheels, the use of fossil fuel, aerodynamics, electronics and yada yada) the speed of invention was gradually getting faster and we are at a moment in history when that exponential curve is reaching a point in which that advances are emerging so rapidly that it's very difficult to be updated. Theorically there can be a no-return point when the changes will be so rapid that we won't be able to understand the consequences of what we created. That is called Technological Singularity and it has to do with IA developement
