Web 4.0
Web 4.0 is the Symbiotic Web. The boundary between human and machine will blur. Full virtual reality, artificial systems autonomously interacting the way humans do, using natural language.
It’s a decentralised, intelligent, and personalised version of the Web built with emerging technologies, to give users greater control over how data is shared and accessed.
It will change business, industry, and personal communications incredibly.
Web 3.0
Web 3.0 is the third generation of the World Wide Web.
Web 3.0 is meant to be decentralised, open to everyone (with a bottom-up design) and built on top of blockchain technologies and developments in the Semantic Web, which describes the web as a network of meaningfully linked data.
