What the Future Holds

This weeks reading  from As We May Think talks about the future machine, technology, and knowledge. The author Dr. Vannevar Bush, being a great doctor is very interested to the development of science and therefore the future machine that will help science growth, he discussed how technology has changed and how it continuously developed and shaped the human lives and perspective. His examples include how typewriter remediates into computer that we used now, how automobiles has changed to super cars, and how camera is so much more advance than before. I think his view is very interesting and very ‘appropriate’ seeing as we are born and lived in the digital age.

I’m a big fan of gadgets and new technologies so their growth is something that I anticipate seeing as newer generation of technology is often-very astounding. An example I guess is Playstation. The first playstation was a huge thing during back then, everyone has it, everyone talks about it, it was GOD. Then playstation 2 comes along with better graphic, better game quality, and other things and we moved from PS1 to PS2 like a moth to a flame. Then as time goes PS3 then PS4, it was crazy. But what I’m trying to make a point is that there is no stopping to the growth. New techs with better quality will always comes out one after another, Parents hates it but Children and other gadgets lover loves. I mean look at Ipad, we have like 4/5 series of them and I do know that a friend of mine actually has all of them.

I always believed that all the sci-fi things we’ve seen in movies all those hover cars, space ships, teleportation, and so many other human ‘ideas’ is so possible in the future. I even dare to say that it will happen. No one knows what the future holds and certainly no one knows what technologies will become in 10, 20 years to come. There are just so many possibilities and future that technologies hold in the palm of their hand.
