Technological advancements, especially in medical technology, have made significant strides, saving lives that would have been lost in previous decades.

The current era is the best time to be alive, but it's important to consider how our ancestors would perceive our challenges compared to theirs.

While the human experience is valuable, the integration of technology into our lives will continue to evolve, leading to new forms of interaction and existence that challenge traditional notions of humanity. Our new reality is as alien to us as it would be to hunter-gatherers from 15,000 years ago.

Overall, people today are better off than in the past, with more access to information and learning opportunities than I had growing up.

Looking back 20 to 30 years, it's clear that the advancements we've made in technology and society are earth-shatteringly awesome, even if they weren't obvious at the time.

Human civilization's progress shows that problems once deemed difficult can become trivial over time, highlighting the potential for future advancements that we may not yet envision.

We are on the brink of a new generation of technology that has the potential to enhance our capabilities and make us better versions of ourselves.

Despite the problems we face today, statistically, life is safer now than it was a century or two ago, and this progress should be acknowledged.

Technological advancements often start as luxuries for the wealthy but eventually become accessible to the broader population, reducing prices and improving lives.
