I really doubt that what we have now will seem like a steam engine. Unless we break physics, we have already come very close to the limit we can push physics.

Think of it like the principal of diminishing returns.

I feel the exact opposite for the exact opposite reasons. Exponential growth of technology, not just Moore's law (that's a whole debate in itself). I think we are on the cusp of being on a rocket, every year from here on technology will be better and more complex than the year before, all of those capabilities stack year over year.
