Apple's iPhone 4s. |
With a phone with such a personal app software and high technology being used there will most definitely be a big change in society, the demand for a personal assistance with decrease greatly. Why pay someone to do the work, when you can just have your phone do the work for you? However there are some things that Siri cannot do for you, like get coffee, or make copies for you. Although, at the rate Apple continues to make new features on their phones and other products it will be no surprise if they make this possible. The other amazing change that has been made with the help of Siri is the voice activation system. Siri makes it possible that you never have to use the keyboard on your phone, you can simple talk to tell her and she will do it for you. With this being said, that leaves less work for the human population. As we rely on other people to do things, like search for the nearest ATM, we loose a type of interaction and become very dependent on our technology. Our society’s quick and vast change of technology is amazing, it will be interesting to see what other life altering features come out next.

It certainly is amazing what Apple has come up with in these past 5 years. This new feature, Siri, is definitely the coolest by far. I'm also interested to see what they come up with next. I wouldn't be surprised if they came out with a feature where the phone just hovers beside you at all times! It is kind scary to see where technology will be going in the next 20 years. Especially if we already have a phone to talk to and ask directions when we used to rely on our neighbor or friend for that.
