Question

As technological advancement accelerates, what will be the major differences between life today and in 2108?

Answer 1

I think it is safe to say that every house by then might have a 'robot' helper. And if you think that is a long shot look up ASIMO by Honda.

I would hope that cars would be driven on cleaner fuel seeing the major upheaval here.

Other than looking at what technology is coming out right now but, is not quite rolled out to the general public...well, I would think by then it may be mainstream.

And then whatever you can dream up. REmember both the Car and the Plane were dreams once upon a time. But, it really is hard to say for sure.

Answer 2

I guess more and more ppl will get fed up with technology and go natural. that means in 2108 people will live in caves.

Answer 3

Oh man. It is nearly impossible to tell. Except that it'll be completely nothing like it is now.

Futurists are saying this century is going to be like 100 centuries of technological advancements. Just imagine having information available any time, any place, no matter what. By that time, there would most likely be artificial humans too, and we'd probably be more synthetic than biological. With inflation, I think the average person would be making a few billion dollars in todays currency, while the rich making much, much more. The jobs that people will be having at that time doesn't exist yet. Who knows, the possibilities are endless.

People are calling this the "Information Age" in which technology will become better and better exponentially. We already have the technology for a person to extend their mid life about 20 years, so we'll be physically be 30 or 40, while living for 60 years. And, who knows, by the time we reach 50 or 60, more technology will be out.

Personally, I can't wait.
