Just curious on what some of you think the world will be like in 2100? Or 2200, or 2500? All of us will definitely be gone by 2200 and 2500, and only like little kids and babies of today will see 2100 and they'll be elderly by then, it is still over 80 years away. Anyway, just wondering what the world will look and be like then.
Robots will do nearly all work. Only jobs that people actually want to do will continue to be done by people. Because of this however the corporations would be able to get even richer since they wouldn't have to pay anyone, while the (now unemployed) regular people will get even poorer. A robot might only cost a human workers annual salary, but would then be able to work 16 hour days, 365 days a year.
I'd say (hopefully) we'll start to see the end of capitalism. People'll realise that it's just not sustainable anymore. It may take an actual revolution, with civil disobedience and violence, since the rich will be the ones in control of the law. But the poor will vastly outnumber them so they could win if they united. If capitalism does end then there would be enough of everything for everyone and no one would go without. If not then most of the world be in poverty while the handful of trillionaires own nearly everything.
I think there's no question that we'll have moved on from fossil fuels, but the question will be whether we'll have moved on quick enough that there won't be collosal damage done. I'd say a lot of coastal cities will be gone due to flooding from the ice caps melting. The rich ones will still be around though cos they'll have the money to build floodgates (although that will be much more expensive than any preventative measures we could be taking right now).
As for more positive things I think we'll have true artificial intelligence that can serve our every need. We'll be able to be so lazy, we'll never have to cook or clean again. We'll also have completely realistic human-like robots that we can have sex with anytime we want.
Virtual reality will be so perfect that experiences in the virtual world and the real world will be indistinguishable. It won't be seen as pathetic or anything to spend all day in the virtual world, in fact people with that view will be looked at as luddites. You could go on holiday every day of the week, with a new location each day.
Devotion to religion and nations will be almost gone. Only backwards people will continue to be religious or patriotic, people'll see that as being idiotic and pointless and realise that they were being controlled by it before. The few remaining small relgious groups will probably resort to terrorism as a last desperate pathetic attempt to stay relevant, but then they'll soon disappear and be forgotten about.
And then if we haven't achieved the following then we'll certainly be on the cusp of them: genetic immortality, true artificial intelligence, mind uploading, magnetic hover cars, a permanent fully sustainable colony on Mars, creating life from scratch, etc.
Wow. I didn't know that the future are worst but no interesting technology are made. I hope many country stop their war in order to gained better future. The future can be great if many country work together to achieve it.
The rich will go to space/ colonize other planets.
There will be cool spaceships. Bonus points for very sexually active blue alien babes we discover.
Music in the future will be even more terrible than today's music.
All diseases will be eradicated for the rich. People would be augmented by cybernetic implants and life duration could be extended to 200 years.
The poor will keep on struggling here in a self-destructive dictatorship. That is if it doesn't all end in a war.
But that's in the distant future...
In the near future we got a fuel crisis. Fossil fuels will become expensive, but we will continue to be milked as long as we can pay up. Then we will suddenly learn that there are good batteries and hydrogen engines available after all. Possibly another war in the middle east and more and more ways to dumb down people, so the distant future scenario can happen faster.
By the year 2100, the entire white race will be dead from failing to reproduce. Diseases and pandemics will be widespread and constant because there will be no people left smart enough to engineer vaccines. Islamic people will overtake Europe and replace all parliaments with theocracies. Hispanic people will take over the U.S. and Canada causing widespread corruption and drug cultures. China will rule the world financially. Chinese robots will become superior forcing all other non-Chinese manufacturing out of business.
The U.S. Military will still have superior UFO technology, but there will be nobody left that's smart enough to understand it. Africa will remain as a trash pit of rape, genocide, and cannibalism.
Right now in 2018, all of you should enjoy living in your mother's basement while you can.
I'd imagine the World is still going to have fanbois getting into pointless internet forum arguments about which is best, the IPhone 234 or the Galaxy S 235.
And people still won't have a jetpack or a hover car.
