First, it was psychology. A six-year-old tricking himself into studying human behavior for years to come. That's how it all started. However, that certainly was not the end. When it comes to understanding human thought and mental processes, such explorations often lead to a similar concept. Rather than the processes of the human mind, this field studies its perception and handling of the world. This field is known as philosophy .

I would agree that our technology has mainly been about this, but there are quite a few other equally important parts to human tech ( Economics is half a social concept and half material, industry/production ,) aside these three things. Rather than be taken as a total summary of our technology, I would prefer the statement be taken as a heavily general and simple version of some key aspects to human technology. Anyway, the video then goes into how our brains have been exponentially improving over the last century. Namely, computers. Computer software runs on something called bits. On
