From quantum computing to self-stirring tea cups, technology is advancing at breakneck speed. Be it consumer, industrial, or any other type of tech, we want to know your opinion on which recent advancement will be the most impactful to civilisation as a whole. In other words, when people look back at the years 2014-2024, which new technology or breakthrough will be seen as the real gamechanger?
Its impact doesn't have to be strictly positive; dynamite and gunpowder were important technological advancements, but not everything that's come from them has benefitted society.
We're looking for at least 60 words in your submissions, so be sure to justify your answers. If your answer is an obscure one, try to explain how the tech works in laypersons' terms.
Task: Tell us which technological advancement from the last decade is the most important
