What upcoming innovations will redefine multiple/many domains the way the automobile changed logistics, travel, etc.?

Comments

This isn’t really a revolution until we have new energy sources. There is no T model until that point. Don’t be silly.

It was ChatGPT in nov 2022. Brought to the masses at scale.

ChatGPT is, indeed, part of the revolution. Analogously to the early 1900s, I see this more as another machine that changed the factory landscape. For example, fine fabrics were mass-produced and turned into dresses.

From there, fine dresses became something affordable to people who never could have dreamed of them. ChatGPT is simply one of these machines, producing "deep research" as a fine dress; just an example.

Chatbot subscriptions will never be ubiquitous household and industry mainstays. I'm asking bigger.

Or maybe they will! I know that if I had something to yap to, that responded quickly, had perfect (better than Whisper) understanding, and remembered everything perfectly, I'd journal with it. This isn't a reality yet. Models are too slow and expensive for this to work with tools like OpenClaw, Hermes, etc.

In that case google search would be the Model T and ChatGPT would be the automatic transmission or push to start.
