What is Web 3.0?

 

Web 3.0 is similar to the previous version "Web 2.0" in that it's a phase of the World Wide Web's evolution, rather than an entirely new version of the Internet.

The term "Web 3.0" refers to the next version of the Internet's evolution. Web 3.0 is similar to the previous version, "Web 2.0," in that it's a phase of the World Wide Web's evolution, rather than an entirely new version of the Internet.

It might take a while before we see Web 3.0 in full effect (although some are saying we're already there). In any case, its development will still take time because building it requires research and innovation in fields like machine learning and artificial intelligence—which are themselves under rapid development.

Even so, some elements that make up Web 3.0 are already in use today—or at least they're on their way very soon!

The big idea behind Web 3.0 is that it will consist of a semantic web (or web of data) and machine-processable data.

Imagine this scenario: it's the year 2025, and you're sitting in your self-driving car. You're on your way to a dinner party (the theme is "cats") hosted by a friend you haven't seen in years. As the car approaches a busy intersection, it knows it can turn right without stopping, so it does—right into an ambulance that's en route to the hospital! Your friend who was driving behind you saw what happened and called 911, but don't worry—the car is fully equipped with an AI that knows how to perform minor first aid while they wait for the paramedics.

Congratulations! You've just experienced Web 3.0. The big idea behind Web 3.0 is that it will consist of a semantic web (or web of data) and machine-processable data. It will be able to answer questions instead of delivering only search results or suggestions based on previous searches, understand information in terms of its meaning rather than simply as words on a page, and provide answers even when no one specifically asked for them. Instead of asking Google "do I need cat ears for this dinner party?" the web will automatically recognize your situation (a dinner party) and needs (accessories), then suggest appropriate items from whichever store sells both those things at reasonable prices—all before you even know you needed them!

Just like when Wikipedia was introduced, Web 3.0 will likely be controversial and will have many detractors.

• Many people dislike the idea of an internet that is run by machines and do not think that it can possibly be the direction we want to take.

• Some are concerned about privacy, especially in light of recent scandals involving large tech companies like Facebook and Google.

• Others are concerned that it will be too expensive for companies to adopt, especially if they are forced to redesign their entire sites in order to implement these new technologies effectively.

Still others worry that users may find this new version too difficult to understand or use without proper training; furthermore, some wonder whether there might not just be too much information out there already for us all to process even with help from artificial intelligence programs like AI assistants which can help us sift through what's important right now versus later on down the line when things change again sometime next week when another update comes along (as they often do).```

Unlike Web 2.0, which is largely about linking one website to another, Web 3:0 is likely to be more about linking databases to websites and other databases alike.

As you might have guessed, this is a very different idea from Web 2.0 which was largely about linking one website to another. But Web 3.0 is about linking databases to websites and other databases alike. If that sounds abstract, consider:

• The potential applications of this technology for real estate listings, for example (the property information database linked to the listing database).

• The digital assistants created by combining (linking) your social media profiles (database) with your email account (another database), etc., etc. In fact we are quickly approaching a point where there will likely be more smart machines than people on earth!

There are many applications for this technology, but one that comes to mind is in real estate listings; a database of houses for sale that can link up with one or more websites without having to be updated manually by a human on either end of the spectrum.

• The listings would automatically appear on each website and could be updated at any point in the process. If someone buys a house, it will disappear from all the sites immediately. If they change the price, that change will automatically be reflected everywhere as well. This is only one example of how Web 3.0 can make life easier, but there are plenty of other ways it can improve your experience online as well.

With this type of technology potentially available, we could see new digital assistants created that take the form of software instead of only hardware like today's smartphones/digital assistants such as Siri, Google Now/Assistant or Alexa (Amazon Echo).

In the future, there may be more smart machines than people! Artificial Intelligence (AI) is already being used in many ways today, from self-driving cars to digital assistants like Siri or Google Now.

The future may include more smart machines than people!

As AI advances, it will be able to do some things better than and some things worse than humans. It will help us in our lives, but it could also take over certain jobs or potentially other aspects of our lives that we’re not quite prepared for. In this way, Web 3.0 is sort of like an adolescent adolescent: it can do amazing things, but isn’t quite ready to live on its own yet.

This potential “AI takeover” may worry some people, but others (including AI experts) believe that the benefits far outweigh the risks. In fact, they think that AI won’t just be helpful in solving problems — they think it will actually create more jobs and opportunity than ever before! According to one study conducted by Gartner at IBM's Watson headquarters in New York City last year, there are now more smart devices than there are people on Earth—and that number is only going to increase exponentially over time as technology continues developing.
