The article, through the inductive methodology, seeks to investigate some of the innovations that have been employed by the society. This investigation is done through a literature review in order to answer the question: is there any common element among the innovations? The hypothesis proposed is that there is a common element. That element would be the search for optimization, derived from the Law of Least Action. The concepts investigated cover science and technology, algorithm and digital, artificial intelligence, machine learning, decentralization and Distributed Ledger Technology, Blockchain, smart contracts, industrial revolution 4.0 and industrial revolution 5.0. The conclusion attempts to generalize the results found.
