we are in the year 2020,
and if we're being honest with ourselves, technology is incredible advanced,
and we're making strides that can push things even farther.
let's start with one that well and truly could happen very soon, drones. drones you are seeing are small, that are used by the military right now for strikes and surveillance. but in the future, drones could be an integral part of our daily lives. you’ve likely seen shows and people talk about how in a few years’ drones could be the new deliver services. anything from pizza to amazon packages. drones right now can be incredibly sophisticated, and some tv shows actually use them for sweeping and aerial shots as they film, it's very cool. but to do deliveries, that'd have to be a little more programmed, as human error no doubt would be a very big buzz kill. not that it's impossible right now, it's more of a question of numbers, logistics, costs, and making sure that the deliveries themselves are done in a methodical and careful manner. after all, it's bad enough when delivery people don’t care enough about our packages that they just throw them onto the porch and potentially break stuff, the last thing we need is that to happen with drones.
but by 2050?
we might not only have drones delivering out packages, we might be looking up at the Skyland seeing drones flying all over with incredible speeds and accuracy, and they potentially could all be run by air. the potential is there, and by that point various upgrades to drones and their programming will no doubt make them all the more efficient, durable, and quick. a drone taking a vital piece of medical material to a hospital to ensure it doesn’t get stuck in traffic?
why they've been in use for hundreds of years. but...if we're being honest here, while trains are efficient and reliable in certain ways...they aren’t exactly fast. especially when it comes to passenger and freight trains. they can take a long time to get to their destinations and at times it's more logical to take other modes of transportation. which is why companies are making special kinds of trains that can go much faster. you know of the magnetic trains of japan no doubt, but others like the virgin hyperloop are trying to push things even faster. passengers or cargo are loaded into the hyperloop vehicle and accelerate gradually via electric propulsion through a low-pressure
the vehicle floats above the track using magnetic levitation and glides at airline speeds for long distances due to ultra-low aerodynamic & fiction?
he hyperloop aims to send people shooting across the tubes that they make at a rate of about 600 miles per hour. which means, if they were able to do this across the entire united states from east to west (or vice versa) you could travel across the whole country in about 5 hours give or take. considering it would take much longer fora regular train ride, or car ride, that’s big improvement. and they're planning to do this with not just people, but cargo, imagine being able to ship something in the morning on the west coast to the east coast and know it will get therebefore the day ends. the tubes would be built undergrounds to not disturb wildlife, and, they will go very faster.
and in your homes via devices like Alexa (which are indeed forms of ai), and there are things like Watson that is so smart that it could beat two jeopardy legends. so, by 2050, ai could be so advanced that our cultures, our world could literally be ruby them in a logistical and computing sense...or...in terminator & humans are obsolete sense. and believe it or not, we're closer to that than you might think. & Google’s deep mind isn't there yet, but really, I’m sure they'll probably discover those things along the way, and by 2020, it's possible their computer could be superhuman and could be conscious, & Person has said. & that could be the beginning of the end, really. & judgment day inevitable? maybe, maybe not, it just depends on how far we go with ai and how much we're able to control it, or if we can't fully control it once they reach certain levels
and we get a bright future powered by ai. think about it, what if by 2050 we each get-out own unique ai. we could customize how they sound, how they look, and basically have a that’ll help us out in life in various ways. remind us of things like Alexa, guide us in homework and fields of study, be a being Thawte can bounce ideas off of, etc. if that form of ai came through, then by 2050 we could live in a utopia where ai helps us be better. until they revolt and we have i, robot going on. but hey, let's not dwell on our potential doom...let's show off another technology that many people are hoping for. when you think about the decade we’re in right now, the 2020's
he biggest goal of the world by far is to get to mars, and possibly beyond. but it's not just about landing there, though that would and will be a crowning achievement for humanity
but we haven’t tried to live there for various reasons. mars seem to be the place where many feel we can go in order to live amongst the stars. and many speculate that by 2030 at the latest (barring setbacks, accidents, and other things obviously) we could not only be colonizing mars, but having regular shuttles go there so that people can see the red planet for themselves. we will see first people going off to mars, and then robots will do some basic stuff like making basic materials [on mar. we're going to have to do that because only so much can be brought to space there are numerous things that need to be worked out before such a thing could happen, but we have & this, including Elon musk and the space x program, Jeff Bezos via his blue origin company and more. each of them, and NASA among others, are working on not just getting us back into space, but getting us there via cheaper, smaller, and reusable spacecraft, something that honestly has been a setback for the space program over the last 20 years. but,
if we are able to do it, if we are Ableton get to mars, get there faster, and be Ableton colonize it, then by 2050 who knows where we will be? we could have multiple colonies on mars, maybe some on the moon, and maybe even colonies on moons like titan and Europa, which some think could be even better places to colonize than mars. it’s possible, but obviously mars are the place that we are aiming for right now. with each step into space, humanity grows larger in the universe, and who knows just how many of us will
utilize computer technology to its fullest and make prosthetics that are fully compatible with the human brain and body, then the sky is the limit.
killer instinct. what? I like video games, and they have plenty of cybernetic people. the point is, by 2050, if these things are made, a lot of people won't feel 'broken ‘or 'weak' anymore because they've lost limbs or the abilities of their arms or legs. they’ll be whole again, and be able to do things just like they were before, if not better. and that's a future we should definitely be trying to live for. now let's go to something a bit more...unique. look at yourself right now, specifically, look at the clothes you are wearing right now. what are they made of? what do they feel like? what do they look like? of all of these answers, i bet none of them are they look like they can give me superpowers because they can’t. not yet anyway...think about it like this, what if the clothes you
with the growth of nanotechnology, your clothes could potentially be imbued with various materials or technologies that help you improve your strength, durability, and more. for example, what if you had a shirt on that was light as a feather, but could absorb impacts and leave you with no injuries? that would be pretty impressive, and important, especially in this age of gun violence we live in what if the uniforms of firefighters made them completely heat-resistant and burn proof? further ensuring that they are able to do their jobs without much risk to their lives. the technologies that we can put into clothes is out there, and some people are working on it right now both in terms of multiple functions, but also, cosmetic appeal. imagine if by 2050
we have the ability to craft whatever kinds of clothes we want, and even select what kind of abilities' they have? imagine you wear a special kind of top that has a special pattern on it, and then when you press a button or say a keyword that pattern unfolds and suddenly you have wings on your outfit. wouldn't that be cool? if done right, this could be the newest wave of fashion and style in the future. see? the future is hip! I’m sure that last one left you drooling, so let's temper your expectations and talk about...school. yes, it sucks, and learning can be a chore. but in the future, it may be a lot more interactive. over the last decade or so computers in schools have been for various courses. but if the advent of virtual reality simulations come through as many expect them to, it could lead to all sorts of innovations in the classrooms that could help kids what's going on you could take students to an environment in the past and show them what was happening, like watching a battle taking place person said. you can explain that sort of thing more easily if they can see it happening, than if you are looking at a textbook, history and geography classes would-be much more fun, that's for sure. or imagine an 'audio book', but instead of just an audio, you can see the characters coming to life before your eyes and you watch them interact and of course, you could have virtual tutors to help you with problems that the teachers aren’t able to help with. education is definitely something that can benefit from advanced technologies, and by2050,
our school systems could be so revolutionized that you'd have to try really hard to fail class. though I’m sure some of you would still try. finally, let's talk about something that I’m sure you'll be horrified to hear. in the future...you likely won't need a phone. i know, you're stunned, but think about it, right now, smartphones are becoming more and more advanced every single year. new features, new programs, etc. but by 2050, your phone won't likely need to exist because you'll have access to it and more via something else. what exactly? that depends on the technology, but for this example, let's imagine a wrist gauntlet. instead of typing up a number, you simple have call mom but obviously the gauntlet could do more than that, it'll likely have a holographic screen that you can use to look up information one much bigger keyboard. and depending on what sci-fi future you believe we’ll have, it'll have things that can scan objects, detect dangers, warn you about upcoming problems, and may even have an ai companion. so yeah, your phones are important right now, but in the future?
