Question 1: How do you feel the popularity of cell phones embedded with high-quality cameras has changed the nature of photography?  
I feel like images today are seen less as captured memories and more like something cute to put on social media. Instead of taking meaningful pictures, people today tend to just capture whatever looks good. Back then, people had to send their images off for days to be developed, so they took more time and put more consideration into them. Also, they didn't have social media. When photos were taken, it was most likely not for the public eye but for your own. 

Question 2: Speculate on what you think that the future of Photography will be. Holograms, wearable cameras, organic lenses?
Holograms will definitely be the future of photography. People have already been researching and trying to figure out how they work. 
Question 3: Respond to this quote from the article: "It's really weird," says Antonio Olmos. "Photography has never been so popular, but it's getting destroyed. There have never been so many photographs taken, but photography is dying."  
I agree with Antonio Olmos. Photography and the thought behind each picture is completely different now a days then it should be. People take hundreds of selfies daily, forgetting that photography is supposed to be thought trough and have a deeper meaning.
