I find it puzzling that people are hesitant to try new and remarkable technologies, even though they could save a lot of energy and time. It's amazing how much new technology can improve our abilities and generate opportunities for us over the years.
However, most people are reluctant to give it a try. They may not be afraid, but they simply don't think it's worth their time. It's surprising to me how little social influence can motivate people to try new things. The most common response I hear is "that's nice" with a blank stare, and then they continue on with their business.
For those who are willing to embrace new technology, such as AI and Blockchain, they are likely to reap significant benefits not just today, but in the years to come.
