If you look at the rate of change of humanity, it's been exponentially increasing.

If you look at the direction, it's not predictable. A very different set of things will come to pass.

A child born today will live O(100 years), and will be in a very different world than I am today. Computation, in particular, is continuing to change. LLMs are a huge change, as is being interconnected, as are many other things. That's not "faster," like Moore's Law of yesteryear, but it is change.

Also: Change isn't always progress.
