0:00 In 2060, significant technological advancements are changing the world forever. For example: 0:06 1. Artificial General Intelligence Has Arrived An artificial general intelligence is defined 0:11 as any intelligence that has the same cognitive performance of an average human in virtually 0:17 all domains. It’s also defined as an AI with human-level consciousness and self-awareness. 0:23 It’s considered the most important and impactful invention of this century by 0:27 far. It also indicates the start of the technological singularity, 0:31 which is a point in time when technological growth becomes uncontrollable and irreversible. 0:37 In 2060, multiple artificial general intelligences have been created. Each 0:41 of these general intelligences is connected to networks of supercomputers and quantum computers 0:47 and they’re connected to cloned versions of the internet. They were rigorously tested 0:52 in trillions of life-like simulations involving a high variety of activities. 0:58 And people are able to communicate with them using a variety of methods 1:02 including holograms, virtual environments, and simple voice conversations. 1:07 A well-known AI company is licensing its artificial general intelligence to mostly 1:13 research institutions. It’s solving noble prize-winning discoveries in fields such as 1:18 physics, chemistry, and medicine every couple of weeks. And as its intelligence increases, 1:24 it’s solving unsolved problems at a faster and faster rate. 1:28 This AI is also speeding innovation in the fields of mathematics, computer chip design, and finance. 1:35 A well-known Metaverse company has its own artificial general intelligence and its purpose is 1:41 to merge items and capabilities in that company’s Metaverse with the real world. It’s accelerating 1:47 developments in the areas of full-immersion virtual reality, nanotechnology, replicators, 1:53 and programmable matter. It also has access to detailed scans of human brains, which help it 1:59 to understand human psychology and behavior much better than humans can. It’s developing 2:05 complex strategies including gamification to get people of all demographics addicted to 2:10 that company’s Metaverse. And when people use brain-computer interfaces, this AI uses their 2:16 brain signals to create user profiles and predict buying preferences with laser-like precision. 2:23 There’s also an artificial general intelligence run by a well-known country that has been leading 2:28 in many AI advancements for quite some time. This artificial general intelligence 2:33 is being used to speed the rate of technological innovation in its state-run tech companies. 2:39 It’s also enhancing its country’s surveillance capabilities and optimizing currency policies. 2:45 Humans can barely keep up with the explosion of knowledge and technological innovation 2:50 that these intelligences provide. And each of these artificial general intelligences 2:55 is growing exponentially smarter every 12 to 16 months. 2:59 2. Nanobots Can Connect Our Brains To The Internet 3:03 A nanobot is a microscopically small robot built on the scale of nanometers. Nanobots 3:09 are typically ingested in pill form or introduced to the body through other means. 3:14 In 2060, nanobots have replaced smartphones and VR glasses for some people. It’s now possible to send 3:22 nanobots directly into peoples’ brains and connect their neocortexes to the internet and various 3:28 cloud services. This is giving users of these nanobots constant access to all the information in 3:32 the world and the ability to access it instantly. This is also giving those users picture-perfect 3:33 memory in regards to the video, image, text, and audio data they can access. 3:38 This is resulting in users upgrading their brain’s memory capacity by a millionfold. 3:44 Nanobots are also capable of providing full-immersion virtual reality 3:50 and making people feel like they’re really in another place. 3:53 This is due to the nanobots controlling incoming and outgoing brain signals. 3:58 Various companies are emerging that are using nanobots 4:02 to mimic all types of experiences that are controversial and recreational. 4:07 As a result of these innovations, we are witnessing an explosion of creativity 4:11 when comes to music, art, movies, shows, and the development of new inventions. 4:17 3. Photo-Realistic Virtual Worlds Are Now Planet-Sized 4:21 This is largely possible because the majority of virtual worlds are now computed 4:27 and rendered in the cloud. 4:29 Additionally, game developers can create entire cities and landscapes using only their brain 4:35 activity or by simply typing text to describe what they want to create. Advanced game engines 4:40 are able to automatically fill in the details using advanced procedural generation techniques. 4:46 Many of these worlds are modeled on planet Earth, but multiple attributes 4:50 can be adjusted such as planet size, city locations, day and night cycles, 4:55 weather patterns, gravity, and so on. And almost every variation of every physical 5:00 object in real life is available as an asset to use for these virtual worlds. 5:06 Because of the complexity, level of detail, and realism of these worlds, 5:10 they’re starting to look more like full-blown simulations. 5:14 4. Radical Life Extension Is Becoming Possible Huge numbers of adults are using gene therapy 5:21 and nanobots to slow their aging processes by altering the genes that cause aging. These 5:27 technologies are also preventing common diseases such as cancer and heart disease that could cause 5:33 death as well. As a result, people born in the 1960s that have access to this medical treatment 5:39 are still alive and well today. They’re on track to become the longest-living humans in history. 5:44 Some people project that this generation could live up to 150 years or longer. It’s 5:51 actually somewhat of a mystery how long this generation will live on average. 5:55 And the treatments are improving at such a rate, 5:58 that the next generation afterward could live considerably longer. 6:02 In addition to slowing aging, gene therapies are also giving some people 6:06 strength and stamina that is higher than what is typical for their ages. 6:10 5. Space Hotels Are Now Affordable For Most People In the last 3 decades, space hotels were only 6:17 reserved for the rich with typical costs of around $250,000 per person. Space hotels now 6:24 have a similar price tag to a trip on a cruise ship or a trip to Disneyland. 6:29 This is largely thanks to the emergence of space elevators. Transporting people 6:34 to space hotels with space elevators only requires 1% of the cost of using rockets. 6:41 6. Designer Babies Are Becoming Common For The Upper Class 6:46 Wealthy couples in some countries now have the option of creating what they consider "perfect" 6:52 babies in a laboratory. This is done by picking and choosing hereditary traits such as gender, 6:58 height, hair color, eye color, and hundreds of other characteristics. 7:02 All of these traits can be programmed into an embryo prior to birth. 7:07 The embryo is then grown in an artificial uterus. The most advanced and controversial 7:12 techniques involve manipulating the brain to improve a child's intelligence, behavior, 7:18 and personality. And each year, more and more traits are being offered. 7:22 It’s no surprise to anyone that many conservative and religious groups 7:26 see this practice as an abomination. 7:29 On top of all of this, there’s even software that can analyze a baby’s DNA 7:34 and then provide a reasonable approximation of its future face, 7:38 body shape, and personality in the form of portraits and animations. 7:43 7. Smart Clothing Is A Trillion-Dollar Industry By the late 2050s, smart clothing has become a 7:49 trillion-dollar industry and has a faster sales growth than traditional clothing. 7:54 The most advanced smart clothing incorporate video or holographic displays 8:00 on their exterior. This type of clothing is typically worn at fashion and award shows. 8:06 More conventional types of smart clothing have the following features: 8:09 • They can allow users to quickly change the color and texture of their clothing, 8:14 depending on user preferences. Because of this capability, it’s become commonplace for 8:19 people to change their outfit appearance several or more times in a single day. 8:23 • They can continuously monitor a user’s heart rate, breathing, and other vital signs. 8:29 It will alert a hospital or medical professional at the first hint of trouble and ensure that a 8:35 user gets the help that they need. • They can convert sunlight into 8:39 electricity and serve as wearable power supplies wherever a person goes. 8:44 • They can provide optimized heating and cooling capabilities. 8:48 • And they can provide real-time data about the molecular composition of the air around you. 8:54 Additionally, when using smart gloves, scientists and forensic teams in the 8:58 field can touch DNA samples and obtain genetic sequences in a matter of seconds. 9:04 By the 2070s, it’s expected that the majority of clothing 9:08 will be smart clothing and have one or more of these capabilities. 9:12 8. Tablet-Sized MRI Scanners Are Commonplace High resolution, 3D imaging of internal 9:19 structures of the human body along with brain activity is now possible using real-time video. 9:25 This can be accomplished with devices no bigger than a tablet. 9:29 They work using supersensitive 9:31 atomic magnetometers, which can detect the tiniest magnetic fields. 9:37 MRI scans have become as quick and easy as taking a photograph, with a hundredfold decrease in cost. 9:44 Healthcare programs in developing countries are particularly benefiting from this technology. 9:50 9. Entire Movies Can Be Created With Realistic Virtual Environments 9:55 It’s become commonplace for movie studios to create photorealistic 3d models of actors 10:01 and movie environments in a matter of seconds. 10:04 Reshoots of movie scenes are easier than ever before because 3d models of actors can stand-in 10:11 for the real actors. If an actor has to discontinue in the middle of a movie production, 10:16 that actor can be easily replaced with the 3d model of another actor as well. 10:22 Additionally, text to video has been possible for a couple of decades. This is the process 10:28 of typing the components of scene and letting a computer auto-generate that scene for you. This 10:34 technique is helping studios to create epic action sequences that used to take 10:39 several months to finalize in as short as a few days. 10:43 For some movies, audiences have the option to view movie characters and 10:43 their environments from any conceivable angle. It’s also possible to add and remove elements 10:43 based on the options provided by a movie’s director. For example, 10:43 elements such as clothing and weather might be changeable. Theoretically, 10:43 each person who watches a movie with these options would get a slightly different experience. 10:43 Thanks for watching.
