Nice article, but the choice of “before-after” photos are not the greatest, except for maybe the first one about city garbage collection.
Great tech advancements happened in such ways that make the subjects in the photos wildly different. Plus the photos should be from 2023.
There are mini electrical cars sharing bike lanes available in certain cities.
The rockets are launching satellites that are 50 times smaller and lighter. And sometimes each launch has a dozen of them!
Passenger airplanes practically land themselves these days. The available in-cabin entertainment would have been unimaginable 30 years ago, and there is satellite internet available mid-flight. I admit that the passenger treatment quality has decreased, though (e.g. less legroom.)
The rest of the article is good, though. I haven’t finished reading it - so far it’s about the rich getting richer and getting most of the benefits of the productivity increase. Plus the productivity paradox.
