3 Technologies that will Reshape the Human Race

The future is drawing near more quickly than you think. New technologies will change how we live, take care of our physical health, and help us stop a worldwide disaster. Whether you like it or not, technology is developing swiftly and every year it leads to discoveries and ground-breaking innovations. The next piece of technology that will radically change the way we live is being developed by some of the sharpest brains now at work. Although it can seem that science is making steady progress at times, technology has made great strides during the past 50 years.

 Artificial Intelligence:

Artificial intelligence, or AI, and machine learning are terms used to describe a machine's ability to learn and act intelligently. As a result, robots are now capable of doing tasks, making judgments, and even forecasting the future using the information they get from data. When you understand how much more of a role AI and machine learning already play in daily life, you might be surprised.

Examples: Every Google search you make - Alexa, Siri, product recommendations on Amazon, personalized recommendations on Netflix and Spotify, security checks for illegal credit card purchases, dating apps, and fitness trackers -  AI oversees each and every one of them. 

Additionally, I believe that as machines become more intelligent and capable of carrying out more human tasks, our uniquely human traits—such as creativity, empathy, and critical thinking—will become even more appreciated and precious in the workplaces of the future.  

Internet for Everyone:

Only roughly half of the world's population is online, even though we seem unable to function without it. Although there are many reasons for this, including societal and economic ones, some people are unable to use the internet because they do not have a connection. A new tactic has been taken by launching their network of shoebox-sized microsatellites into low Earth orbit.

These satellites fly over and transfer your data while turning on any connected modems in your PC or other devices. The British Antarctic Survey, among other organizations, already uses its satellites, which orbit the Earth 16 times a day, to offer internet access to the planet's most remote regions.

Extended Reality (XR):

Using technology to create more realistic digital experiences is known as "extended reality," or "XR." Mixed reality, augmented reality, and virtual reality are all included. In reality, XR is being used to enhance organizational processes like customer service, workplace learning, letting customers try things before they buy, and others.

Accessibility and availability are obstacles to be overcome because XR headsets can be pricy, big, and unwieldy. The likelihood that the technology will be extensively used will, however, only increase as it becomes more available, affordable, and enjoyable to use. The biggest obstacles will be privacy concerns and the potential psychological and physical repercussions of extremely immersive technologies.
