(In fact, two-thirds of Americans own one, according to a Pew Report.)

Intuitively, it feels like technology is progressing faster than ever. But is it really? According to Ray Kurzweil—yes, it absolutely is. In his book The Singularity Is Near, Kurzweil shows technology’s quickening pace and explains the force behind it all.
