Futurist Chronicles: The Fourth Industrial Revolution

We are in or about to enter a Fourth Industrial Revolution and I think that the coincidental occurrence of COVID has accelerated that. To be honest my fascination of the 4th Industrial revolution started from when I first realised all the stocks had plummeted. Naturally this made my curiosity peak watching videos trying to soak as much information as possible down the You tube rabbit hole. Now before COVID the only other time that I can remember the stocks plummeting were from significant events such as the dot com crash of the early 2000's and the financial crisis of 2008. These two events were associated with periods of rapid economic growth due to what I'd say were the 3rd and 4th Industrial Revolutions.
