Technology Brain

The human brain is remarkably pliable, capable of reshaping itself while still producing firm, enduring thoughts. Across the stages of life, our neuroplasticity gradually declines, yet the mind continues to adapt, compensate, and evolve. Technology, however, does not age as we do. It accelerates relentlessly—its pace now far exceeding the slow cadence of human biological evolution, which has largely plateaued some 100,000 years ago. This widening gap raises an essential question: what happens when our tools evolve faster than the minds that wield them?
