Don’t automatically dismiss old technology. Farm tractors and other farm equipment these days are just like new cars, loaded with computers, logic chips, gps, everything a car has.
A friend of mine had a new $50,000 big round baler. It used computers to make sure the bale density was consistent, track the pickup right or left, control hydraulic functions and so on. Well guess what? A circuit board failed and everything on the baler stopped working. He couldn’t even eject the bale until the new board came in three days later, which of course was after his alfalfa hay got rained on.
Another fellow I know had the same type but different brand of baler. A bearing overheated and caught the bale on fire. The fire burned the wiring up before he could eject the bale and the burning bale ended up burning up the baler and tractor plus 7 acres of his unbaled hay. I’ve had bales catch fire on my old baler and all I had to do was eject the bale and go back a pour my water jug on it. Never lost anything.
At work we use gps to survey construction. It’s super accurate but when in wooded areas, it goes blind and I have to break out the old dumpy level with its glass lenses and crosshairs.
I welcome new technology and it’s simply great...until it isn’t. And when it isn’t, most likely big repair bills and insurance claims are involved.

I use a lot of stuff that are old technology. I guess I don't use my head. But then last time I checked it was my right. Yes for me the SLR's are better.

Sounds like Sony is throwing in the towel on ILCs.

It is time for camera makers to up their game as far as in camera processing goes. That said, whatever advancements you can make to tiny lenses and sensors, can also be applied to larger ones. Whatever software trickery you can implement in a cell phone can be implemented in a dedicated camera. Superior? Doubtful. As good as through the use of software and AI? Possibly.

Superior for sure because? Because most cell phone companies are still spending a lot of money in R&D to improve their cell phones. None of the camera manufacturers is doing any R&D on their DSLR's any more. So you see for sure which direction it will go. Remember the guy said DSLR he didn't say mirrorless.
