The first industrial revolution arose more than 200 years ago powered by the discovery of the steam engine. As a result, this allowed for faster and higher production at a lower cost. Later, there was talk of revolutions in the field of electricity, information technology, software systems, and communication technology.
Today we are talking about a fourth revolution that represents an important mindset change. Since it compromises everything that surrounds us, people, data, machines, and industries.
The fourth revolution, also called industry 4.0, will include virtual assets. Like, the internet of things, artificial intelligence, data science, and blockchain. These new technologies merge the physical, digital, and biological worlds, impacting the way we live, favoring the transformation of humanity.
With the current industrial revolution, industries expect to have higher productivity, more efficient decision-making, and more optimal production processes. All of this, accompanied by direct, massive, and personalized communication, among other changes that will impact economic sectors.
