Publisher's Synopsis
Technology has been evolving since humans have been around, from the earliest stone tools and fire-making techniques to the super complex systems we have today.
However, the pace of technological advancement has accelerated rapidly in the past few centuries, particularly since the Industrial Revolution in the 18th and 19th centuries. In the 20th century, we saw the rise of electrification, telecommunications, and computing, which laid the groundwork for the digital revolution of the 21st century. Today, we're experiencing a new wave of technological innovation, with breakthroughs in fields like artificial intelligence ("AI"). In many ways, the improvements in technology can be correlated with the changes in our human ability to think, analyze, and solve problems. Ultimately, it seems we humans have been using our brains more than our muscles in recent centuries.
