Ask HN: The greatest innovation since the internet / web

So as a non-coder I hear more and more about AI and I am wondering how significant of an innovation AI could end up being?

When I think about it to me it seems that smartphones and widespread mobile internet access are the biggest things to happen since the Internet became widespread but in my book, they still don't compare to the significance of the internet.

I guess I am asking two questions: - Could AI end up being as important as the internet? - What are some other innovations to look out for that are gonna be hugely important?
