Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs finds modern parallels in today’s tech landscape. The foundational physiological needs, such as food, water, and shelter are readily met through food delivery apps and smart home devices that maintain comfort.

For belongingness and love, social media, messaging apps, and online communities foster and maintain our relationships.
