From Sci to Fi
Discussion of technologies that may or may not be enabled through technology level III and the chances and dangers they may bring can be discussed here.
Please add them to the list of potential applications as short and concise as possible and link back here or to a new page to the apropriate section.
If the topic grows big you are welcome to create a new page and link it from here.
Please don't add technologies where there is no reason to believe that APM will help making them a reality like beaming of humans, warp drives, neutron star physics or the like. Also the effects of self improving AI that might crop up in the future is of no concern here since exploratory engineering isn't really applicable there.

APM & History
- First and second industrial revolution
- Digital manufacturing: Recently termed the third industrial revolution by some.
- APM: more a private than an industrial revolution - technologically generated independence and de-globalizing effect (not yet tackled on the corresponding wikipedia page)
- Three age system - stone bronze and iron
- Information age (silicon age) - plastic age would be more befitting to the everyday use material classification.
- APM: transition to the "diamond age" ?
