We can define technology as all of the tools that carry humanity forward. Therefore, we can include any field that benefits humanity, from mechanical devices to computers, from biology to medicine, into technology. Technological development can be defined as the improvements and productivity increases made with these tools. This is where things get interesting because each technology developed accelerates the development of the next technology. In other words, the speed of technological development is increasing day by day.
We can compare this to electricity in the early 1900s. At that time, making any product electrified saved labor and time and brought a great innovation to the market; like an electric drill, washing machine or vacuum cleaner. When artificial intelligence is added to existing products and services, it has already started to change many areas with the improvements it creates.
Cell phones and their digital assistants, which are at the heart of our daily use of technology, will also undergo a major change. As digital assistants like Siri begin to listen to events in our lives and add them to their systems as digital data points, artificial intelligence will present customized information for us and make decisions and shop for us.
