It's tough to predict the future. Instead, the future looks a lot like it does now: Faster data transfer rates, more social networking, ubiquitous mobile devices -- and possibly dumber people from using all this stuff.

AI Summary

Josh and Chuck dive into the wild world of internet predictions, exploring what our digital future might look like in the next seven years. They cover everything from lightning-fast download speeds and the growing threat to net neutrality, to how our smartphones might be rewiring our brains and changing the way we communicate. Drawing on insights from tech experts and their own observations, they examine whether we're heading toward a more open internet or one dominated by corporate "walled gardens" - and what that could mean for all of us clicking, scrolling, and connecting online.
