One Year Later: Human Technology Integration

One year ago, in June 2025, I published Megatrend #3: Human Technology Integration as part of my 30 Megatrends series. Here's part of what I wrote: The boundary between technology and biology is blurring with neural interfaces, bio-monitoring, augmentation technologies, and medical device connectivity which we can refer to as bio-connectivity. It creates a new form of hyperconnected medicine, leading to entirely...
