People will become even more absorbed in their electronics and our culture and social lives will continue to change because of it.

Right now we only unlock a tiny part of the potential of our electronics. This is because your system of input is very limited. The bottleneck is not your brain or the computer but the link between them. We will have very simple devices for input that allow you to communicate with your computers with incredible speed. This comment is taking like five minutes to type with my thumbs. You could make a device with today’s technology that would allow it to be done in seconds. And it would be cheap. Better than a keyboard and totally mobile.

Imagine that and then include improvements in Image and sound delivery. Then throw in full internet access everywhere for everyone via starlink. It’s going to make our phone habits look very quaint.
