Talking about not seeing any large tech creations when in the last 40 years alone is on some sci-fi shyt. Bring someone from 1985 to now and they would be shocked at what is here now, hell you could bring someone from 2005 here and they would be amazed.

No… Someone born in the early 1900s? Yes…

One of the dumbest things I have seen here. Just in the past ten years we have seen AI, IoT, Cloud Computing,

These things are built off of older tech that was created before you were born…..

DARPA dropped cloud computing in 60s…
AI research started in the 50s and started being utilized mainstream in the early 2000s…

These tech marvels(most of em) you guys are referring to were achieved using tax payers dollars via academia or government decades ago… What you’re marveling is private corporations buying this tech and introducing it to the every day consumer for huge financial gains….

People envisioned cloud computing in the 60's, ENVISIONED, not invented. It was not until the 2000's where it actually was developed and used.

AI was theorized in the 50's but we have not seen the widespread use of it until recently.

Because some people thousands of years ago were able to glide for short periods using primitive shyt, was true flight invented then? When people hundreds of years ago wrote books on WHAT could be done, is that when flight was invented? Or was it when the hot air balloon was invented, or when the Wright brothers took flight?

These tech marvels(most of em) you guys are referring to were achieved using tax payers dollars via academia or government decades ago… What you’re marveling is private corporations buying this tech and introducing it to the every day consumer for huge financial gains….

Okay, take someone from the 1980's to now and you expect them to be like, "This is cool but it is nothing special" when they see what technology we have now? You dudes man......

This isn’t the premise of the thread first and foremost… but as a late gen’xer who not only grew up OG sci-fi, but is also part of the gen that updated the tech that you are so impressed by, I can firmly say that yes, I could see this coming… You are conflating being able to forecast present day as opposed to just simply being impressed… There is ample video/literature out there from yester year that predicts the tech of current day… How old are you?

That is incorrect…. Inventions begin with a workable proof of concept, not when it’s adopted on a wide scale or privatized for financial gain… Military was using what would be considered(even if just conceptually) cloud computing in the 60s and 70s…. and it has been built upon over time to what we have present day….

Okay, you are not serious or more importantly not to be taken seriously.

I could post more but I am not. I am 40 years old and have seen 4 decades of technological change, not even counting the scientific and medical advances.
You want us to believe you somehow knew all of the advances we have now decades prior? That we are not supposed to marvel at what has been put out here?

You’re the one who can’t be taken seriously… You can’t even follow the premise of the thread…. The fact you were born in the early 80s and couldn’t see this tech coming is indicative of you being in the slow side of the game…. You standing on the hill of the smart phone being revolutionary when all the tech has been around for decades…. the miniaturization of transistors is what allows various tech to be combined in a small computing device…. Transistors ain’t new… and you can’t call tech a major breakthrough unless it progresses society in a positive way….. Yeah… you on the wrong side of this

Alright, you are a stupid bytch for real. Is that the fukking hill that you are going to die on, that since these new technologies use transistors it is not groundbreaking?

So i guess you think the automobile was not revolutionary because it was using a internal combustion engine that was already invented? Because it was using wheels that were invented thousands of years ago?

The rockets they used to get people and satellites into space were nothing special because the Chinese invented them hundreds of years earlier?

You can point to everything that has been created as being "ehh" because it built off of previous knowledge, pointless retarded shyt.

What the fukk are you even talking about?

You are championing a smart phone whose main function is supposed to be the ability contact via a mobile device….

I saw cocaine runners using sat phones in the 80s

Major corps have made you fall for the trick bag by marketing a must have product, that incorporates a lot of older tech, but yet doesn’t do anything revolutionary…. Surface level thinking at its finest…..

That automobile analogy is trash… it’s a revolutionary invention because it transformed human mobility on a personal level in a extremely positive way.

They are currently running test trails on cars that can drive themselves.

AIDS/HIV medicine is almost here.

Tourism to other planets in the galaxy is being developed.

The male concreceptive pill is almost finished its trials & about to be on the market.

Soon society will be cashless.

Many technologies are in development.

Better to reign in Hell than serve in Heaven
Why do you keep bringing up 2021 as if that is when we were all born? You 4 years old?

I still remember seeing rotary phones being used to having a computer in the palm of my hand.

I remember having to go to the library to find information about things when now I can do that from anywhere from thousands of sources.

I remember wishing the Universal Translator from Star Trek was something that would happen way in the future, but you can translate text and speech in real time now with applications. Not perfect but immensely helpful and only getting better with Augmented Reality as well.

Back to Star Trek, a show set hundreds of years in the future, i wished I could ask a computer to do things for me like they could on the show but now that is actually a reality.

I went from resigning myself as a teenager to be stuck in an office and in traffic my whole life, to now being able to work from home or anywhere in the world.

I can keep going on and on but the point is that if you are not fukking 10 years old or younger, you have seen massive changes and new technologies being put out over your lifetime. Until the fukking railroad a few hundred years ago the fastest way to travel on land was a fukking animal, for thousands of years.

The fastest way to travel by sea before steam engines hundreds of years ago was with sails, which were invented around 4000 BC! How many people said you are not going to get any better than that and we have ships splitting atoms that can stay out at sea for months to years without getting supplies for the crew.

Talking about not seeing any large tech creations when in the last 40 years alone is on some sci-fi shyt. Bring someone from 1985 to now and they would be shocked at what is here now, hell you could bring someone from 2005 here and they would be amazed.
Are you dumb... This thread was made in 2021

The title is There won't be ANY MORE large technology CREATIONS in our lifetime


Who gives a fukk what happened when we was kids...

The man is saying after 2021, there will be no more CREATIONS... He even speaks on things being built upon things.... But not new creations



How you gonna be mad at nikkas for sticking to the premise?

Take everything you have ever seen or has been created BEFORE this man made the thread.... Do YOU think you'll see any new CREATIONS before you die... Not better versions of things you've seen. Brand new... "Hey Dr Allen invented a Wobinator that bends time" type of shyt, that we never heard or thought of......... Or nah?

Because it is a retarded ass premise and believe who argue it are just as retarded.

You say do not bring up things that are based upon other inventions, as if that is not almost the entirety of inventions since we have been inventing shyt.

Does a new "Whim Bam" Machine needs to be created to fit your criteria? Not shyt like AI that can create biological machinery (including new proteins), Agentic AI and other advances. Things in the scientific and medical world that do not light up and make noises so the neurons in your flat brain can fire so you process emotion don't count either i guess.

Plus taking anything a man that uses the letter C's instead of K's serious shows the type of mental stagnation you are suffering with.
