I feel like crying... technology is evolving so damn fast that I can't catch up... would need to spend 24/7/365 reading and applying in order to be on top of everything.
In terms of SEO, I may be wrong but I don't think this is related hence I doubt it will have an effect on it. What I see coming is more automation, more tools, more apps, more everything as well as huge competition as things will become more simple.
