How Life Will Look Like in 2050 ?
Since the turn of the century technology has rapidly improved our reality is now filled with things that were dreams in the past few decades seeing how the past and folded, I was curious about what the next 30 Years would look like so why did that little digging into what life might look like in 2015 for us.
Nanotechnology :The potential to change life, as we know expert in the field believe that Nanobots will in the future be fitted into our brains to connect us to the virtual world more readily and faster with the use of brain computer interface technology, the mind and computer will be one making humans very powerful beings, with access to endless information and solutions to problems that the Mind wouldn't be able to solve. If nanotechnology reaches that stage, there may be no need for gadgets like phones and calculators. This is very exciting for students of the future. It looks like math will not be a universal challenge much longer .
3D Print Technology : The next tech advancement that we can expect in the future is the rise of 3D Print Technology. 3D Print Technology is already advanced but we can expect it to be even more advanced in 2050. For the time being, we have 3D printed tools at home. In the future, we will be able to print more tools and perhaps even some modes of transportation, if bigger machines are built , this technology will also become more accessible to everyone who may want a 3D Printer. Making the possibilities of what can be printed infinite if the current trend of Open Source 3D files continues. It will not be long before everyone prints their own large objects like furniture and weapons. Here’s an idea about developing an affordable 3D printer for food that could be the end of world hunger despite global warming.
Medical: Here we go from the extinction of phones to the eradication of death. By 2050 technology the finality of death may be a things in the past, with the brain connected to a computer through BCI technology, the information stored in our brains can be transformed into a hard disk like computer files that means the data including memories can be retrieved and uploaded into another being maybe a more advanced humanoid robots. In this way, the best minds in every field will be preserved and able to continue working on innovations. Another Improvement to consider in the medical field is that serious diseases like cancer will be cured. The only downside to this development is that every new technology is very expensive when it first comes out so the rest of us may not have access to this literally life-saving technology for a while.
Transportation is something that we may have access to in 2050. Transportation will have Immensely changed with experimentation focused on self-driving cars, it is already underway from car manufacturers such as Tesla, it is not much of a stretch to believe that by 2050. The advantages of technology for fully automated vehicles will exist notably, such automated vehicles include a drastic reduction in traffic related deaths because the vehicles will collaborate with traffic control systems. Another advantage is the change in lifestyle that self-driving Vehicles will bring with no need to man a vehicle. People will be free to choose whether to relax or be more productive as they travel a lot of free time considering the amount of time spent in traffic. Another interesting development is the hyperloop, a project by Elon which aims to move the bulk of public transportation underground with the use of electromagnetic levitation at historic speeds 310 kilometers per hour. This train presents the opportunity for a faster , cheaper and cleaner mode of transportation, and if more people opt for it, then there will be even fewer traffic related incidents.
Fuel Still on Transportation, the fuel used in all future transportation modes will be renewable energy. Currently the world is plagued by global warming and the threat of depleting natural resources, so we do need to be looking at adopting a more sustainable source of energy. Now hyperloop one is exploring electromagnetic levitation and the automobile industry has also been looking for ways to reduce vehicle emissions. These are all efforts aimed at achieving the goal of stopping the use of carbon emitting fuels. Besides that research is being done on the ocean’s wind solar and thermal energy, one company in particular blue rise, a specialist developer of ocean. Thermal energy conversion is working on a project that could completely phase out the use of fossil fuels. Hopefully blue rise and their colleagues will be successful soon enough to alleviate some of the environmental problems we face.
Space Exploration: if there is one that has been mentioned as a mitigating option for our current environment challenges is space exploration and colonization like SpaceX and Blue Origin. They set on revolutionizing Space technology with goals of spatial exploration, and ultimately enabling people to live on other planets in colonies with all the strides already made by 2050. Space tourism will also be reality for those who can afford it. The possibilities for holiday destinations will expand to include places like Mars and the moo. Unfortunately, a trip to orbit will be significantly expensive, making it exclusive for the extremely wealthy at least at first.
Artificial Intelligence is something that may be available for everyone. It is already more advanced than most of the Innovations here, the development of artificial intelligence will only get better through the years. Experts in the field believe that AI will surpass the processing power of living brains that wouldn't be scary if it didn't open the door to the robot-apocalypse. Luckily, scientists still have to figure out how to impart all the important values into an AI before it can become a part of everyday life, but the rise of AI will , of course, change the face of the workforce, not only that , but the job market will be extinct, taken over by AI machines and robots. In 2050 the world will be more interconnected and even driven by data than it is now, and some of us need to consider a career change.
Education: as the job market changes education will also see some significant changes . There has been an increase in digital learning, especially during the pandemic. By 2050 digital schools will be commonplace even if we have physically attended schools, they will have no need for books, using tablets and laptops instead For higher education experts. I believe that more than 70% of the student population will be involved in online degrees making education more globalized or rather a welcome step in the right direction, if we're to make good education accessible to all. I believe online degrees may even be taught by AI-powered robots at that time. I imagine the robots will be able to prepare course material, give lectures and mark assignments, sadly you may be unable to twist your lecturer’s arm, so they give you a deadline extension that is metaverse now we move on to.
Metaverse : since Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg announced it. Virtual Reality and AI have been simulated into our everyday life. Through the social media giants for those who may be a bit confused about the metaverse, you are not alone and you have come to the right place. The metaverse is a virtual reality computer-generated environment in which you can interact with other users through AI enabled software, so it is about simulation with avatars representing users as metaverse functions which will get more developed by 2050. It will be able to offer a full virtual experience that includes shopping to travel right from the comfort of your own home. People will have the option to share their virtual experiences with the world. Imagine taking a trip to your favorite holiday destination with your family, only you’re not physically there, which the metaverse will offer. It seems to me like the more we get connected , the more we stay apart.
Money even though we'll still use it. One thing that has been used less and less over the years is Cash. Keeping up with that trend, cash will most likely no longer be used in 2050. All transactions will be done virtually and new modes of financial transactions will emerge because of AI, and decentralized finance. As the world slowly starts to adopt those technologies, we may not even have to do our own grocery shopping anymore. Making traditional paper and plastic money even less useful like Tesla which orders its own car parts, as needed our automated pantries and the refrigerators may order our groceries no more, getting the wrong milk or even running out of milk.
Real Estate: homes in 2050 will also be completely automated Smart Homes. Although Smart Homes already exist, the development that will be available in the next few decades will be great improvements to what we have now Smart Homes. In 2050 , we will have full AI activations functions, allowing the home to sense our moods and requirements without giving it to a single command. Additionally, interactive hologram television will exist meaning that you can verbally call up your hologram TV and it will appear right in front of you, the best part you will never have to look for the remote again because you can control the TV with your mind using none nanotechnology as discussed at the beginning of the Article, so with that we have come full circle in this article of exploring what our lives will look like in 2050.
