Embracing New Technology

Resistance to new technology often stems from the discomfort of admitting past methods may have been flawed. Early versions of innovations, like cars and airplanes, were initially seen as inferior, igniting skepticism. As Douglas Adams noted, people tend to embrace new tech before age 30 but view it as a threat after 40, highlighting the generational divide in adapting to change. Despite fears that advancements like AI will disrupt jobs, history shows that society typically finds a way to adapt and settle into new norms.
