If you’re reading this article, you have
lived through the most significant
period of change and technological
advancement in human history. A
revolution that has fundamentally
shifted how we work, consume media,
and manage our lives.

from a phone was essentially unheard
of. Downloading media was largely
illegal, VHS was still common, and
the latest shock-proof CD player was
all the rage.
Today, smartphones, advanced 3D
printing, Artificial Intelligence (AI),
and the emergence of autonomous
vehicles would make any sci-fi geek
from the early ’00s drool.
