We are now in the year 2017, the entire world seems to be moving toward wirelessness. Will the personal computer and laptop become obsolete technology?
Will we all be able to interface with a giant supercomputer, by way of micro-electronic handheld technology? This is an interesting concept to consider. Will we all have the ability to access and process information by mobile telephones, or some type of miniture handheld technology? This will become a possibility.
Software and computer companies all over the planet are investigating and researching the possibilities and application of wireless information technology. Asia and Europe at this time are at the forefront in the race of wireless information exchange.North and South American companies are working fanatically to play catch-up in the world of wireless infomation networks.
NTT-DoCoMo, the innovators of the I-Mode cellular telephone who have approximately 13 million Japanese linked to the information superhighway are in the leadership position for this type of technology. People can now transmit e-mail, check financial activity and browse the internet through their mobile phones. But this is just the tip of the iceberg as far as possibilities are concerned.
Imagine one day of having the activity to accomplish all your daily tasks anywhere at any time without having to be at a particular location to achieve a certain task. In today's fast paced society people want unlimited flexibility and mobility, this is now mandatory for virtually every aspect of human progress.
Almost everyone possesses a cellular telephone, and the subscription number is expanding exponentially. One day we will all be wireless and this is a fact. One day we will be able to do almost everything by remote control, with a multiple array of digital handheld devices.
What will the implications be for humanity?
Who will benefit and who will suffer?
These are the important questions that we as a society must seriously ask ourselves.

What are the implications of rapid technological globalization and ubiquity for human society?

Total collapse of cultures and a desire to breed more humans. Hopefully in the end AIs will become self aware and succeed us.

Most likely we will never be able to reduce human mind to an algorithm.
We will have artificial intelligence created within systems human mind invented and meta-systems for those systems to expand the system and have computers that automate our brains, but we might never have computers that think like human, that are free like human mind, that are self-aware.
When we humans cannot prove something logically we make a new system to prove it. Machines work within systems we define.

there's nothing different, things haven't moved an inch since 2007, any implications with technology that we had in 2007 have already come about, mystery solved

OR it will turn out that were just robots who make decisions based on factors like hunger, hormones, feelings, ect and be able to make AIs do the same.
Only time will tell. 2050 is the current estimated time for the tech singularity. Hopefully you and I will still be alive to see it.

Tribalism will still exist to some extent, as that sort of thing is solidly encoded in our genes. So class structure and being popular will still be important. We will probably continue shifting away from a outward appearance style of popularity to more of an inward cleverness style,
i.e. here on 4chan we are judged by funniness not our jaw structure. The jocks ruled in the 90's now the nerds do, etc.
We will probably demand a better interface between us and our computers, a google glass type thing but of course better.
We've already started adapting. We're more likely to forget something if we know that it is easily google-able. Most are choosing to 'experience the moment' hundreds of times in pictures on their phones rather than the one, more real experience.
So probably we will see much of the same. The notion of what work is will have to change due to automation and such. Things will be safer as we let AI's pilot our transportation. Police will get scarier. Video games and life will be increasingly intertwined.
The haves will benefit and the have not's will be salvaging the tantalum from the computers we're using right now.
