Has technology relatively peaked already?

It seems rationale that by the limits of limits technology would have a peak

Flying cars we're suppose to be here already by 2000 and we can't even get a ford EV to make it past 200 miles in 40 degree weather

What mind blowing advances have we had since electricity, internet, etc?

It's peaked in the sense that we can't move forward unless we make some major breakthroughs in certain technologies. A good example is batteries. The current stuff is just not feasible to allow a full transition to electric power yet.

You literally have a tiny computer in your hand that can do anything for you on a moments notice and you're asking what technology has done since internet and electricity?


I remember having to print out directions on Mapquest to go somewhere when I was a teenager... and those f*cking things always missed a turn.
"One day I won't be able to lift any more. Not I won't want to lift. I mean physically unable. That day could be decades from now or it could be tomorrow. All I know is that's the day I'll wish I could lift more than ever. The day I'd give anything for one more workout, one more set, or one more cardio session. So go hard and enjoy every workout, every set, every rep. Because one day you will wake up and you will never get it back."

but that technology as existed for decades now, they just condensed it into a mini computer, remember the title says relatively and that's important

have to agree with you, even anything interesting today is well within the bounds of stuff that already existed more or less

For like 60 years we forgot how to get to the moon and build supersonic passenger jets. I'd say **** peaked in the 60s/70s and we are just catching up now

We're just getting started mate. Information warfare is getting strong with WEF (BlackRock) taking control of nation states.

We'll be seeing a world soon that non of us will be happy about.

Pretty sure it peaked in 1969 and has been trajectoring down since. Can’t make it to the moon anymore or even launch the rocket.

Definitely seems so for now. Everything new is just built on major advancements prior and improved. If you look at the big things that advanced tech through history they’re few and far between. It’s probably always been this way. Everyone feels like we’re peaked out and every century or so some big breakthrough comes along that changes things.

Not even remotely. Things are getting remarkably better each day. We still have zero understanding of dark matter or of how humans encode and store memories, and there are several unsolved problems in anomalous materials that may prove exciting for technology in the future. So, no. Not even close. Lord Kelvin or some other old school physicist is said to have stated that the future of physics lies in the fifth decimal place or something along those lines. This was to claim that most everything of importance had already been discovered. That was before computers, the nuclear bomb, the theory of relativity, and a ton of other incredible breakthroughs. Point being there is still a lot unexplained. We can't even really explain why there seems to be more matter than antimatter. And we cannot explain galactic dynamics and dark energy without resorting to ad hoc empirical laws that we don't quite understand. There is a lot at play we are just starting to discern.

Ofc to most smoothbrains who don't even bother to understand what we already have, nothing ever changes or happens.

No have you seen video game tech nowadays? Even an OLED technology is far superior to the best tv from 10 years ago.

OLED has been around for 20 years you clown

Wait until you learn raytracing has been in games since the 90's; oh oops




The transistor is tapped out, that's why "advancements" have been slowing since the 60's

Which is good because technology just degrades society

Yes, but it couldn't be done like this until computers like the Nvidia cards came out, which required groundbreaking innovations in hw engineering.

This guy doesn't understand the definition of relative. Everything he points is something that already existed and was optimized.

At least where I live the way we construct houses is still primitive and expensive. Why aren't we using modular prefab and just assembling on site?

regulations to keep businesses in practice. I mean you have to pay an engineer 20k to draw a map and study the soil before they will even give you a permit. back in the old days dads built houses on the weekends

Until we can figure out how to Power electronics better we are stagnating.

Brb invent a minblowing Google glasses to augment our reality but battery only lasts half an hour or you need a fat battery back on your head. Vr takes a chit town of power. We will be tablet/phone maxing until they figure this out(might be impossible though).

Driverless cars are way off to being reality

They keep making us all these cool devices (airpods etc) but they have chit battery power
