Hi all, I have been analysing the situation from simplistic point of view and am curious to know that ‘consumerist’ shape that the coming world would take. The computer revolution began in 60’s I think but it came as, at least upper-class, mass market product in 80’s in western world and by late 90’s it was mass-market. Then came the internet , which had stupendous growth in early 2000’s in western world,and though there was a dot-com bubble but the mental image of end user product was quite visible. The current top multi-billionaires , Page, Zuckerberg, Musk, Bezoz etc all came from this era, it added a new dimension to way of living and transformed cultural space. Then in late 2000’s came the ‘Smartphone’ era which added , another new dimension to our way of life , the era of ‘apps’ , ‘Snapchat’, ‘Instagram’ ,‘Uber’ etc gave new power and ease-of-living to consumer space. For above I am talking from general selected point of view only as it would make for very long query otherwise. We had leaps in ‘Gaming technology’ , faster computations allowed humans to carry out more experimentation and enabled them to come up with more optimised way of their business and come up with new products. Now with respect to AI what do you envision future way-of-living to be ? I mean there are two camps, ‘hype’ and ‘doom’ but people in middle say that AI finances are definitely hyped but technology will survive, but I say survive for what ?
