When i look at technology, i feel the excitement has plateaued. There are lot of things that are happening in terms of tech but nothing groundbreaking. AGI was supposed to be the next best thing after internet but it is far from human level intelligence and creativity and no one in AI has an idea how to achieve it excpet for scaling up infrastructure. We need something really interesting to sustain interest in science like great people did with engines, airplanes, missiles,  internet etc..,(reply>), This comment did not age well. We now have AI art and AI poems; AI that can generate synthesized knowledge from the entire internet. Something very exciting is beginning.
