This document summarizes technological developments and their impact on a hypothetical family from 1890 to 2040. In 1890, technology was limited with candlelight and basic education tools. By 1940, the family had electricity, dishwashers, and light. Television and projectors were introduced by 1990, making communication and education easier. Predictions for 2040 include flying cars, household robots to replace human labor, and robotic teachers, resulting in few job opportunities for humans.
