Before internet we had the telephone to communicate. What do you people think could be the next step of that?

    I think accessibility is the next big step personally. When you have stuff like StarLink that will give you access basically anywhere in the world. That will be something.

    From there I’m not sure what will be the next thing. AI is more of a buzz word than anything at the moment but it certainly is pretty cool to think about. I’d like to think that proper AI assistants will be next but there is a long way before that’s a thing. We have enough trouble at the moment of having ai tell true from false at the moment… (At least last I read)

      Yeah whenever i interact with chatgpt i always keep in mind that I can’t believe everything it says, especially if the topic is not that popular so it can’t find much information. I would definitely love to be able to access internet everywhere without a problem, it would help so many people paying crazy amounts of money in bad areas.

        I would concern yourself with whom is supplying that internet to everyone in the world first.
        Think of how much Musk tried charging for digital blue check mark icons.

        Until access to a new tool is a considered a basic human right access will always be primarily determined by income.
        It’s the way it’s been and so far the main thing to change in the scenario is the tool.
