Technology has radically transformed our daily lives over the past decades. This book takes readers on a journey from the 1990s to today, showing how we moved from bulky computers, "brick" cell phones, and slow dial-up connections to ultra-powerful, always-connected smart devices. At the same time, it explores the rise of artificial intelligence: from an experimental research field to an invisible yet pervasive presence in our everyday lives.
Through thematic chapters, the author compares past and present technology in terms of hardware and software, highlighting key moments in the digital revolution that reshaped communication, work, and society. The book analyzes the extraordinary benefits brought by innovation—such as global access to information and advancements in medicine—alongside emerging challenges, including AI’s impact on the economy, labor market, privacy, and human rights. It explores how automation and algorithms are creating unprecedented opportunities while also raising ethical concerns and risks that must be addressed.
Looking ahead, the book discusses future scenarios and the role AI might play in shaping tomorrow’s world—between utopian progress and dystopian fears. Written in a clear and engaging style, the book is filled with real-world examples (such as the contrast between a 1990s PC and a modern smartphone or AI-driven everyday services), supported by academic sources and real data. A must-read for technology enthusiasts, students, and professionals eager to understand how innovation from the 1990s to today has reshaped the world and what lies ahead in the next technological evolution.
