# Develop a theory of technological development.

What would you borrow from Bacon, Merton, and Kuhn to create your theory?

Paradigm shifts are norm in technology as opposed to the chaos that Kuhn described, due to the exponential nature of technological growth (in a broad sense). New tech thought/innovation leaders are similar to the most popular scientists in the age of science. In terms of competition technology is unbounded by the restraint of gifting knowledge, more focused on gaining wealth and hoarding knowledge for profit/power, with technological innovation concentrating on those with the most resources like big companies. Technologies are invented not to benefit the populous but to create wealth/power for the inventors. |
