Where Do You Guys Think The World Is Within 100 Years?

[khalifa]

Maybe chem engineering reaches a stage where it can re-arrange any atom/molecules into anything, That would probably mean using every waste we have turning it into 3d printed food or materials.

I can see an age where we actually torrent blueprints to get print out even oldern type of tech/material or even food.

A cam that actually records a new type of file format that has complete specs edges in and out scan of any object/place that it may replicate into a 3d printer with perfection.

Photographing a 2120 pizza from joey's or some McDonald's burger and actually printing it at 2200 as if it were the same restaurant of your homeland back then, Quite something.

 

Dna computing / Quantum computing / Wetware computing being perfected allowing us to enjoy dark/black magic like tech that is beyond us right now. Feeds the ego with lots of entertainment as it's lazy. Perhaps even writing complete scripts of games/movies/series/anime with various themes within seconds of using certain algorithms etc.

a 100 years? Maybe 200 or even 800 who knows. These are all possible.

 

Back in the day Mark Twain wrote about the internet before it was made.

He wrote that you could talk to a box and someone on the other side of earth could talk back in that box and it's possible for them both to hear each other at the same time. Everyone said it was impossible, Guess what this box is right now? your typical phone or computer.

Same thing with this box recording moments and later playing it. Like your typical camera.

All this sounds crazy to us right now but it's mathematically all possible.

However he did predict it wrong, He said that only people with high art and scientists will have access to these and we all know that's not true as a high percent of the internet is porn viewed by people being far away from being scientists or even being artistic.

Man and cyborg can be mixed, why not? We are already seeing signs of it happening today a guy losing an arm or leg having a mech hand or leg detecting his nerve signals. Is already happening as wetware computing exists even though it's in it's early phases. 

 

Genetic Engineering will also play an interesting role in the future for sure, Modifying human capabilities to be more intelligent or have higher capacities to process things around them, having maybe even higher awareness than the current humans would definitely be something, I can see us being split to 3 types of societies, pure breed (natural), half breed half engineered and pure engineered humans. It's quite unfair to compete in a society where you don't really have advantages as your perfected or enhanced human that may not need rest or eat often for fuel and are not affected by eating unhealthy toxins, can compute much faster or have an insanely high learning curve or understanding as it may be ahead of 1.5% DNA or even 5 or 10%, a 2/3/4 digit ahead of evolution done so early would be interesting to see as that is what a greater society than our current state probably have.

 

Advanced robotic tech is interesting too, Scraping out old layouts and re-engineering a whole country to optimal spaces for high well being functioning society sounds nice.

Im hoping that mankind will have mastered the art of living and created a physical, functional paradise/utopia for all.

Not a bullshit dream paradise where no-one or few people are working, something functional. Here are some changes.

 

-A complete reconstruction of the "School" system from the ground up. Alot more centered around Self-Actualization. As much bullshit from the old school system is cut out as possible.

-Robots do "boring" jobs or jobs no one really wants to do and or is highly un-popular. (Stuff like working in a brick factory)

-A Council of Sages govern a country

-A complete reconstruction of global economic systems, Capitialism, Communism, Socialism, etc are all thrown out. And a completely new system is devised. (The sages will comes up with a new system)

@brovakhiin You've got some vision man. Nice. Only missing Farcry 5. 

Curious....I'm going to bet you don't use fluoride...?

Doesn't anyone know you get what you focus on?

This one thing right here can make all the positive difference we crave for. We need to really shift our focus from education to all to quality education, even if it's meant for limited masses cause then they can go ahead and provide quality education to all. But it sounds very dreamy and idealistic.

Women are the key.

I agree and I'm all up for women empowerment but I believe that a man plays an equal role in the making and when the two come together, which is a very rare occurrence, something highly valuable, lasting and above all, powerful is created. 

 But I don't think our society is very accepting of the idea.

@Old Soul  I think you'd be left unsatisfied since it is so easy.  If you really cared that much about the release alone, masturbation would be sufficient.  It sounds like you need to gratify your ego though, which you wouldn't be able to do with a 11/10 virtual woman as well as with a 6/10 non-virtual one. I think deep down you have a need for validation from the opposite sex that you aren't in touch with and haven't really overcome.

If you don't have that, then you really don't have much to fret about at all. It's like you're waiting for a more advanced back-scratcher to scratch your itch. Judging by your posts. you have too much emotion tied to this for that to be the case. You want the ego gratification.

Give it a rest Dr. Hannibal. You have no idea...I want the ego gratification? You think you got a clue, but boy you are in for a surprise when you actually look what is inside of me. That's why I don't look inside myself either and just ignore it. It's too dark, it's too much, no beating heart could take it. They are way, way more reasons for my behaviour and my lifestyle choices, about which I cannot talk in this public forum. The secret is way too dark. If it was only that easy...I want just ego gratification...maybe I even secretly long for a woman to love me and I just play this shit up to avoid those feelings...no...no...if it was only that easy, I would have long ago worked this out and be at peace now. My torment is of a different scale, from a way more darker and rotten source...no one can look at this madness inside my soul and get away with it, and you should not even try.

 

Just kidding ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°). I will now stop with this nonsense and be a serious and helpful community member, I promise.

men murder themselves with war, so there are only women, and we all live on floating cities (like icebergs)

How mankind ends: super-intelligent AI learns how to cocktease shallow man into perpetual slavery with big virtual boobs.

Isn't that somewhat tangentially similar to how the AI enslaved the humans in the movie "The Matrix"? I don't know, just an observation.

I don't understand the universe ways...maybe you can ask? Maybe because he was the best what we could get right now, the man that was needed just now? And I don't mean to say that he is good...or bad. He is destined to bring change and to kickstart our evolution. In a good or bad way.

[Nahm]

@Old Soul Just a thought, you are saying you focus on yourself and not other peoples' ignorance. As an offering for your expansion and self discovery, which will bring the very freedom you seek - most of the words you use reveal your focus is on finding other people's ignorance. Can you find my nonignorance in this comment?  It is in your comments.Godspeed. 

[Nahm]

@Principium Nexus You and I, We literally, scientifically exist in seperate realities. The paradigm freedom you desire is within you, not what someone is doing to you.  Don't believe the illusion. Everything is you. 

[Nahm]

@Old Soul It's because you are the universe. Stop looking at "Trump" and believing he is the universe. Don't believe the illusion bro. All is you. You are literally and figuratively trumping you're own power with illusion.

If everything is me than I want to become a better totality, isn't that something worth straving for?
