The idea of trench warfare was not new, but was taken to its extreme. The basic firearms were still present (pistol, rifle, machine guns, and cannon) but had more advanced versions, such as the 1911 Colt semi-automatic pistol, the M-1 rifle, the Browning Automatic Rifle and the Thompson submachine gun, and the Maxim water-cooled guns. New field rations replaced those used extensively in the Spanish-American War. Carrier pigeons were not new. Mounted cavalry was not used extensively, but there were still horse-drawn wagons and artillery carriages. Much of the troop movement in the war were still made by train.

Can new technology solve world problems?

There is no way of knowing if new technology will solve world problems since we have no way of knowing what new technology is going to be developed, or for that matter, what world problems will exist at the time that technology is developed. It is possible that new technology will be used to solve world problems, and it is also possible that new technology will be used to make world problems worse. We will have to wait and see.
