There is a lot of backing for this concept that innovation is continuing, and also that past innovation was not the 'big-bang' explosion that we remember. We only remember the big changes, we don't remember the decades to produce them. Just look back at the studies on the Industrial Revolution. We think of them as great progress, great innovation. But that is only looking back at the results. The Industrial Revolution actually stretched over hundred years, and when the individual year-to-year progress is mapped out, then it was really more of a continuum that continues to today. https://www.jstor.org/stable/1171333 |
