Clarke's First Law

Clarke's First Law states that "any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic." This means that when we encounter technology that is far beyond our current understanding, it can seem miraculous or impossible, much like magic. For example, modern smartphones perform complex tasks that would have seemed magical to someone from a century ago. The law highlights how our perceptions of technology can shift as it evolves; what is familiar and understandable today may seem extraordinary or magical to future generations.
