I have seen many articles about how the practice of law and trials and hearings will be different and, in the future, be very much in tune with technology. Is that going to be the future?

With great glee, many younger lawyers have engaged in extremely advanced technology talk about how the COVID-19 pandemic has forced the courts to change and get rid of longstanding traditions. At least, in the short run, they may be right with courts talking about hearings by Zoom, other videoconferencing methods or telephone hearings, etc. Some courts are even talking about virtual jury trials in some states. Hopefully, that will not be the future.
