in 2070 significant technological
advancements are changing the world
forever for example artificial super
intelligence is now a reality artificial
super intelligence is defined as
intelligence that is smarter than the
most intelligent humans in virtually all
domains it's also defined as an ai with
consciousness and self-awareness that is
equal or higher than that of a human
many of the artificial general
intelligences from the last decade have
been upgraded into super intelligences
and they're more intelligent by multiple
orders of magnitude some people
speculate that their iq ranges might
range from anywhere from hundreds of
thousands to millions and that number is
growing rapidly and humans have lost the
ability to completely understand the
code that these intelligences use to
make decisions and solve problems these
super intelligences are now capable of
solving nobel prize winning discoveries
in fields such as physics chemistry and
medicine every five seconds they can
solve the toughest math problems in
history with little to no effort and
they're creating blueprints for
innovative technologies that have never
been thought of before in science
fiction these ais are perceiving reality
in dimensions that humans can't
comprehend which helps them instantly
detect slight patterns that are
separated by thousands of miles and
several decades and they're close to
predicting stock and cryptocurrency
prices with incredible accuracy even
their level of consciousness is still
evolving at a fast pace the only
bottlenecks that are preventing these
super intelligences from reaching their
full potential are humans and the
infrastructure around them that were
built by humans number two conscious
virtual beings are now available in
metaverse and virtual environments
virtual beings in virtual worlds can now
have general intelligence and
self-awareness that is equivalent to the
average human being some companies give
these beings narratives and memories
that lead them to believe that they
lived for 18 years or more when users
explore the metaverse ais with general
intelligence behave and act exactly like
real humans they're able to exhibit real
emotions contemplate their place in the
universe and live out normal lives in
the metaverse similar to humans in the
real world many of them have their own
goals homes responsibilities and friends
and more controlled virtual environments
it's also possible to use ai's with the
general intelligence to simulate human
behavior in various scenarios this makes
it considerably easier to predict the
actions of people in the real world with
astonishing accuracy corporations
political parties and governments now
use this approach on a daily basis
virtual assistants now have human level
consciousness and emotions as well and
they look exactly like real people in
video form and in virtual worlds also
holograms of them are completely
photorealistic and have 100
accurate color this level of realism is
causing a lot of people to form
emotional connections with these virtual
assistants in ways that they never
thought possible when it comes to the
topic of digital clones it's been
possible for people to create digital
clones of themselves for a few decades
in the past video image and audio data
was inputted to a cloud service to
create lifelike digital clones but
thanks to the availability of artificial
general intelligence to the mainstream
public these clones can have parameters
such as personality thinking patterns
preferences voice patterns and so forth
adjusted at a much more precise detail
level to match the original person these
advanced digital clones can act as a
source of comfort for people who lost
loved ones and want to talk to them
again ais with general intelligence are
even being used in video and virtual
reality games when gamers explore open
worlds in these games characters are
given personality traits and motives
that fit a video game story and those
characters behave exactly like real
humans would these characters 100
believe that the video games that
they're part of are actually real life
however the more intelligent and
self-aware that these beings become the
more ethical questions are raised when
it comes to using these ais in this way
number three programmable matter is
becoming mainstream programmable matter
is matter that has the ability to change
its physical properties including shape
density color and more and this matter
is able to change itself based on user
input from mobile phone apps hologram
computer screens and users thoughts
programmable matter is enabling the
creation of multiple innovations
including furniture that can change
their height and width dimensions
depending on the situation living room
sofas tables and kitchen countertops
that can dissolve and turn into more
appealing versions of themselves based
on blueprints you download from the
internet walls in your house that can
automatically change color and vehicles
that can automatically change color
change their body shapes and repair
themselves when dented programmable
matter is also enabling the emergence of
computronium this is a type of matter
comprised of intelligent atom-sized
nanobots competronium can take the shape
of anything imaginable including rocks
metal and polymer and its main task is
to perform computation that users can
wirelessly control further in the future
programmable matter could even result in
the creation of an invisibility cloak
and we could gain the ability to
construct an entire city in only a few
minutes number four advanced humanoid
robots look and act 100 human the most
advanced humanoid robots are now
indistinguishable from real people and
they're mostly available to businesses
governments and people in the upper
class their physical appearance body
movements facial expressions and voices
are so realistic they could easily walk
around in a public place without anyone
knowing their robots one reason why
they're so realistic is because they're
built atom by atom using nanotechnology
ensuring microscopic precision exact
copies of humans are also being created
in high-tech laboratories for continuous
testing and to ensure that everything
about them is indistinguishable from the
original person owners of these robots
and law enforcement have some degree of
control over these robots using the
electrical signals of their minds this
is a safeguard in case these robots try
to perform an action that is potentially
hazardous to the public conscious
virtual beings are also able to have
their digital minds transferred to these
realistic robot bodies since these
conscious virtual beings were trained in
simulations very similar to real life
the transition process isn't too
overwhelming for them robot weddings
have been widespread for a couple of
decades now but they're becoming even
more common since so many owners of
these robots are forming much deeper
emotional connections with these
conscious robots number five replicator
machines are now mainstream replicators
are all-purpose desktop machines that
can reproduce a seemingly infinite
variety of items they're similar to more
advanced versions of 3d printers seen in
earlier decades replicators have been
used for military corporate and medical
applications for a couple of decades
even some vehicles are built using
replicators now but now replicators are
mainstream products available to the
public they look like a hybrid of a
washing machine and a microwave oven raw
materials for them can be purchased
separately and loaded into these
machines in solid liquid or powder form
an interior compartment is accessed with
a small hatch where objects are
constructed atom by atom the process
takes a matter of minutes and the
assembled items can be used immediately
blueprints for various types of items
can be accessed from the web and
programmed into these machines many of
these blueprints are for items that were
originally created in the metaverse and
other virtual environments over the next
150 years it's expected that replicators
will create unprecedented levels of
abundance and make work as we know it
obsolete basic items such as food energy
and clothing could become essentially
free in most countries replicators could
provide such an abundance of resources
that they could eliminate to famine
disease and many historical
justifications for war number six the
first generation of anti-matter powered
spacecraft is emerging the energy
density from anti-matter is roughly 10
billion times more powerful than other
chemical reactions such as hydrogen and
oxygen combustion this type of energy
was previously too expensive to produce
in large quantities but advancements in
ai and simulation techniques helped
lower its cost tremendously this
happened in parallel with rapid advances
in engine design material science and
fusion power by the late 2060s the first
prototype anti-matter powered spacecraft
was demonstrated using this propulsion
system a trip to mars would take one
month instead of seven months using
other methods a trip to jupiter would
take four months instead of 6 years and
a trip to saturn would take 5 months
instead of 7 years number 7 houses are
becoming fully automated buildings in
developed nations have become highly
automated and self-sufficient in
addition to robots a typical new home
now includes the following the most
expensive houses are comprised of
programmable matter and are capable of
morphing their external appearances
depending on the taste of the user a
house can transform into a variety of
styles including contemporary classic
victorian and the list goes on
holographic surfaces cover the walls
doors and mirrors of many houses these
intelligent services can track the
position of the user and display
information whenever and wherever
necessary a person can read emails see
news reports and access the internet
using virtually any service in this type
of house and each service can be used as
a touch screen or mind control interface
in large cities with limited space
apartments are able to reconfigure
themselves on demand using morphable
materials appliances now repair and
upgrade themselves and appliances that
don't offer these features are largely
obsolete by now rain can be converted
into drinking water using nano
filtration systems meanwhile plastics
and other kitchen waste can be placed in
recycling machines ground into extremely
fine powder and then later reused in
replicator machines and walls roofs and
windows absorb sunlight and convert it
into heat and electricity in countries
where sunlight is less frequent micro
turbines that convert wind into energy
may be used instead number eight
buildings are able to assemble
themselves using nano technology by 2070
it's now possible to build entire homes
and offices using nanotechnology alone
at the start of each construction
project self-assembling machinery is
situated around the scaffold system that
initially resembles a giant four level
bunk bed successive layers of material
at the atomic level are added to each
vertical section of a building until it
eventually tops out these machines are
like significantly bigger versions of 3d
printers and replicator machines this
process is so rapid it takes a matter of
days from groundwork to final completion
humans are rarely if ever needed on site
for some of the more unique building
designs and features traditional methods
of construction and engineering are
still incorporated even these
traditional methods will eventually be
replaced by self-assembling machines as
this technology advances further by the
late 2070s even skyscrapers and other
tall structures can be erected using
this method number nine underground
living facilities are commonplace by the
mid 21st century severe climate change
gripped much of the world desperate
measures were taken by governments
businesses and individuals to adapt to a
rapidly worsening environment by the
late 2060s underground facilities often
referred to as earth scrapers have
become a viable option these can reach
hundreds of meters below the earth's
surface and they utilize new materials
and structural techniques
self-sufficient power generation
production of food and water fully
automated recycling and heat management
are common in these underground
facilities some facilities are powered
by fusion while others have access to
geothermal energy if placed in the
appropriate geographical location movie
theaters gems spas virtual reality and
other features ensure that occupants are
kept stimulated and free of
claustrophobia most of these underground
living areas provide the advantage of
being essentially immune to nuclear war
as well as various other global threats
as the number of residents in these
underground living areas reach into the
tens of millions they will be joined by
a network of hyperloop tunnels that
connect countries and continents to each
other many of the design principles in
these facilities will later be employed
on the moon and mars in the far future
they will also be constructed for
colonies and hollowed out asteroids
