I was just thinking about this. I’m really not sure. I think technological progress is not the core issue but rather a sudden paradigm shift in how you interact with what you use on a daily basis.
For instance, there was a generation that grew up without cars and never learned to drive even after they became commonplace. Just too big a jump from previous methods of transportation. But their children who grew up with cars didn’t have any issues as the technology matured and new features were added.
So the question is will there be another significant paradigm shift in our lifetime that isn’t just an evolution of current interfaces and tools, but rather a sudden change in how we interact with technology?
