I see your point about how many individual, large changes came around in the world between 1930 and 1990. Indoor plumbing, air conditioning, radio, TV, transistor, commercial air flight, space travel, helicopters, nuclear energy, cell phones.
But the Internet and social media have truly shifted society.
Social media has entirely transformed how people interact with the world and discover new things, for good and very much for bad.
People born past 2000 never knew a world without computers in every classroom (or in front of every student). Most never experienced having to be at home to receive messages from people, unless you went to their house. Needing to plan ahead with people when to meet. Everyone in society watching the same shows (mostly).
I think AI will fundamentally alter the world, like the Internet did. We're in the infant stages.
