The world is always constantly changing; however, it is beginning to change rapidly.
In every generation there are those with innovative ideas that influences technology forever. We are in an age where we will see amazing things happen in our lifetimes similar to the drastic changes that happened in the 18th and 19th century, the industrial revolution. It is believed that we are living in a new revolution, a revolution where the voice of the people is heard much louder and faster than ever before. Our revolution is the tech revolution. Code is a major player in this revolution. It is a major player in the game of evolution. It is changing everything.
My generation is thought of as digital natives. We are called digital natives because we were born in the digital age. To be up to date in today’s society and thrive, being tech savvy is a must when it comes to working in any industry. When I was a little kid I grew up watching Star Trek. It is so amazing to me that I am starting to see technology such as 3D Printers, iPhones, Tablets, Automation with Artificial Intelligent Robots, and will see more than predictors, thought we would ever see in our lifetime. One amazing fact about science and technology is that what once used to take 10 years to develop now takes six months. That’s how fast technology is moving, and I am definitely loving it. I believe technology will even begin to move faster with supercomputers that are already here and are currently being developed.
One of the most important skills in the future will be knowing how to code. It is ranked as one of the top skills to learn by Business Insider and other well-known business sites. What is so amazing about learning how to code is that these skills can be used in any field. For example, medicine, agriculture, sports, marketing, entrepreneurship, business, banking, manufacturing, automation, restaurants, retail, and more all need programmers.
Computer Science is changing research like never before. For the first time ever we are fully 3D printing body parts that are fully functional to help save lives. In 3 to 5 years, 3D printing of hearts might be ready to start changing the heart transplant industry. One-day people won’t have to donate their hearts. They will simply just pay for a 3D printed heart to be put into their loved ones. It will be more than a game changer, it will be a life changer!
One the other hand, what will you create? What will be your vision, will you create something new, become a leader, or will you sit back and follow others? The tools and choices are in your hands. Making a wise decision will be beneficial for your future. Remember to experiment, fail forward, learn, and repeat. Failing forward makes you stronger. Just remember that success takes time, and with technology, less time than you’d think. You get out of something what you put in it. So, get out there and put your innovation and creativity into technology and change the world!
