Pocket Lint: Life in the Future: Tech That Will Change the Way We Live

Curated by ACT

Technology has the power to do many things, and changing the world is one of them. We're privileged to be living in a time where science and technology can assist us, make our lives easier, and rethink the ways we go about our daily lives. The technology we're already exposed to and accustomed to has paved the way for us to innovate further, and this list of current and future technologies certainly has the potential to change our lives even more. For example, our thirst for travel has many of us wanting to travel to space. And those of us who hate housework might welcome having our own robot butler. (Published July 13, 2020)
