How did the pronunciation Cutter become a thing I had never heard it until I watched this channel and a few of the videos that have been reacted too but I know for sure everyone in the uk pronounces it Qatar
The Singularity really freaks me out and excites me. The really interesting and scary part is we with A.I. may cure aging and as people are already having less children it could be integral to the long term survival of our species. There've already been many breakthroughs in the field of gerontology be it cancers, life extension, physical age reversal, and A.I. with the help of quantum computing would theoretically be able to solve it in fractions of a second. Any questions we have would be solved as quick as we can ask them.
The thing I loved about The Sun Also Rises was the settings Hemingway created. Sunbaked cobblestone streets, the bright hot sun and dark shadows between the buildings. And he always keeps you apprised about what the characters were eating and drinking. I always put down the book feeling hungry haha
Kafka on the Shore is one of his shorter ones, he tends to write very long novels. Here are some of his short stories as a sampler: www.newyorker.com/contributors/haruki-murakami
There's a book called "children of time" which touches on amongst other things (space spiders!) human colonisation of distant planets in the far future - I remember really enjoying it.
In Australia, it's pronounced Bowgainville, not Boogainville, as there is no war against the letter u there. A more pressing prediction for 2050 is how much of it will still be above the surface of the ocean.
I am from New Caledonia, yes we are still a french territory. It´s funny I discovered your channel fiew months ago, never thought that New Caledonia would be mentioned in one of your videos. Also surprised that you actually knew something about this tiny island of mine 😁

No specific book recommendation, but a book topic. If you're not familiar with the work of architect Antoni Gaudí - designer of the Sagrada Familia, among many other masterpieces - then you need to find a good, detailed picture book of his work. One that will show you many different images of each building: outside and in, long-shots, close-ups, and in-betweens. Gaudí was a visionary genius whose work was highly original, even idiosyncratic. He adapted ideas from a variety of cultures and traditions, experimented with novel combinations of materials, and brought a new emphasis on color as integral to building design. All this beginning in the late 19th century, before the 20th century notion of "modernism" had even been defined, and producing works that will be as close to "timeless" as human civilization will last.
The way the guy said Qatar is closer to the ACTUAL pronunciation of the name. The closest I can explain it in English is if you say the word "CUTTER" but replace the c with a "Q" or "K" sounding letter for more emphasis there and pronounce the "U" sound more closely like the letter "A" and say the "T" with a hard emphasis then put a litter more emphasis on the "R" on the end which the guy was close to saying
This was interesting. When I grew up in the 1960s and 1970s, I read all available science fiction. Hundreds of books by some of the world's greatest and most creative minds. The longer I live, the more of that science 'fiction' has come true. So, nothing surprises me. In that long list of events between now and 2050, nothing is surprising. Most of it is based on already announced or suggested events. I expect the list will pale in comparison with reality, especially to do with AI and advances in science and medicine.
Not convinced all of those were predictions, just a statement of what will happen (Qatar hosting the world cup, a copyright expiring, etc.,) I am not usually a great proponent of 'what ifs', but they had some interesting thoughts and did not go too off the rails; though I amnot sure about the Mars explorations - stuff like that always seems to take a bit longer than expected to come to fruition.
Yep, if he had left out the "under current copyright law." Then it could have been counted as a prediction, but worded in the way he did, it's just a statement of fact. "Curiously," every time mickey mouse has come under threat of falling into public domain before, US copyright laws have been changed to extend the copyright duration. I am sure it has nothing at all to do with Disney giving truckloads of money to politicians. Hence why you can be sure, that current copyright law is under a threat of getting extended again, since Disney is definitely bribing, oh sorry I meant to say lobbying again to get another extension.
I think a lot of these were just educated guesses on the patterns that were bound to happen. Potential scenarios in the future ought not be given an actual date since these things are so abstract. THX 🙏
I recall reading about one person who made very accurate predictions about technology. I think it said he calculated the rough order of magnitude of processing power required for a type of tech under research & development and then slid them along Mores law for integrated circuits to guess at when the technologies might come into being.
In the case of the "Sagrada Familia" you went for the author, so I will go for the theme: Ken Follet's series "The Pillars of the Eart", "A World Without End", "A Column of Fire" and "The Evening and the Morning" about the construction of cathedrals.
04:19 Regarding the Fehmarn Belt fixed link (an 18 km/11 mile long immersed tunnel with 4 lane motorway and double-track electrified railway): 1) It's delayed and now expected open for business in 2029. Not 2024 as stated in the video. 2) There has been a direct line between Copenhagen and Northern Germany since 1998, when the Great Belt fixed link opened. 3) The east-west red line on the map is the Great Belt fixed link. The north-south red line is the Fehmarn Belt fixed link.
The rail system in California has become a ridiculous boondoggle, plagued with corruption, wasted resources, little progress, and mired in lawsuits at every turn. I would be really surprised if my grandchildren live long enough to see the high speed rail project completed. At the rate businesses are fleeing the state, I'd be shocked if California can afford to pay for anything other than supporting the vast army of homeless population by 2035. They already have 30% of the total US homeless population as of right now.
I went on a trip to Oregon a few years ago. Spoke to one couple panhandling in Portland. They were trying to raise cash for a cheap motel. Apparently the shelters aren't the safest of places. iirc they said they worked seasonally on a few jobs but would return to the Pacific for the mild winters. Technically I think the homeless itinerant work made them modern hobos by definition, but they seemed nice. I recently saw a video of someone driving around the shanty towns of silicon valley. It reminded me of photos of the favelas in Brazil.
you were sort of right until the last few sentences, which are pretty much hyperbolic nonsense, including the stat about homeless people, which is about 50% too high. the actual number is 30%. it is also the most populous state with some of the mildest weather, so yeah. that's part of it. homelessness is a problem (mostly due to california being too expensive, a sign of success) but california is the 5th largest economy on the planet. this right wing narrative about companies leaving left and right, another exaggeration. red states wish they had half of what we have going on -- they never will. the rumors of our demise are greatly exaggerated and comments like this serve to promote mistruths.
I think Starlink (and similar) and its effect of remote working becoming even more feasible will have an effect on the prediction that by 2050 70% of the world's population will live in cities. Even if you only think about all the abandoned villages in former Soviet Russia countries, a lot of 'away from the hustle and bustle of cities' real estate will open back up.
Nah. This is just the ego of Coastal folks like CA and NY thinking the entire nation revolves around them. Cities have high crime, no one cares about each other and you have to walk around looking at the ground to avoid stepping on HUMAN poop, homeless folks and needles. Plus the sounds and smells. There's just as many people wanting to avoid all of that as there is people wanting to stay in them.
I think the current rent seeking of city landlords both corporate and small business will squeeze their tenants for as much profit as they can. Maybe the market could get better for renters with more housing supply to compete, but incumbent owners may not support affordable housing near them for the same reason. But I do hope you're right and more people can find ways to become less exploited. Especially if it means breathing new life into old villages.
@@ravenward626 Glad we agree, though it was hard to read your comment with all that partisan buzzword sauce all over it, and that's coming from an ex-squatter 😂
Yeah, that whole "Humans on Mars" idea i don't see happening and not sure here, i believe both Nasa and Space-X have already dropped that idea/timeframe.
I expect AI to be progressing this fast. As of right now ChatGPT has no intelligence of its own, which means it cannot create anything or think at all. Once Quantum Computing is viable self correcting and thinking AI is possible. Meaning you can ask it to review something for you and it will tell you what's truthful and what's a lie and what's a half truth. When it can do that we need to worry about AI truly being "intelligent"
Turned 40 recently. According to things right now I'll probably have to work until I’m 67. Thinking about that, 2050 seems damn far away. x) I pronounce Qatar (or Katar) like you do, in broth, English and German. Not sure if it’s correct tho. ^^
When I saw Back to the Future 2 in 89 (timeless classic must watch trilogy if you haven't seen them) I fully expected we'd have flying cars and hoverboards by 2015. It seemed like a lifetime away back then. Predictions of the future are notoriously fickle.
All the Mars predictions I found - when I originally saw this, WAY overtly optimistic. I'd say that by 2050, we have a decent chance of having a single manned space flight to Mars under our belt. We're likely a hundred or more years away from having people actually colonizing Mars, if it ever happens. Of course I hope I'm wrong on the schedule, and it'll all happen much sooner, but I'd say the likelihood of humans colonizing mars by 2050 is MUCH lower than the likelihood that we never end up colonizing Mars.
I suspect that there may be a few hiccups along the way which could delay their predictions. There are a number of countries who's status quo of corruption and the self interest of their powerful appear to be on a drunken walk towards social and economic instability. That sort of volatility could add a significant amount of uncertainty to the future.
@ravenward626 Hmm Australia is not feeling too happy economic-wise. Weve just had a huge hike in costs. People now living in cars in relatives driveways etc. But unfortunately heads of Universities, Charities, and others are getting paid over 1 million/year. We are just about to lose our suburban look and feel as well as they want us to grow up instead of grow old. Lastly some of this growth is being managed by foreign interests to the stage that there is no consistency or control over the changes, and in some cases, English has disappeared from some suburban areas so yeah there's a lot of uncontrolled change.
Micho Kaku's "Physics of the Future" is a good book. It's a look at predictions of future technology based on current work and patents. Things like edricating cancer through means of early detection. Lime having a smart toilet that examines and analyzes daily waste. So when it detects something that could be an indicator worth noting, it can send the information directly to your Doctor.
I find the idea of hundreds of people on Mars by 2050 more than a little fanciful. We’ve been capable of building orbital space stations for decades yet there’s only ever been one. A round trip to Mars and back with some time spent there will be at least 2.5 years, and the survivability of such a trip is dubious. Each trip will be extraordinarily expensive, and involve only a handful of astronauts at a time. Huge amounts of construction will be necessary for any kind of permanent quarters for even a couple dozen people, much less hundreds. Huge amounts of construction will require huge amounts of really expensive equipment. For that to be feasible we will have to have mastered space based or moon based manufacturing to avoid the unthinkable cost of rocketing hundreds or thousands of tons of equipment from the gravity well of earth. Technological advancements in material science don’t move at the rate that data processing does, and the hard, material advancements are what will be required in order to overcome such towering challenges. It will require patient, multi generational resolve, and armies of some of the most brilliant people on Earth. Here’s my prediction: By 2050 we will have sent about as many people to Mars as we have currently sent to the Moon. There will be no permanent presence.
Aside from Qatar (and many other), there's another name which is pronounced two ways in English: Darius. You'll either hear "Duh-rai-us" or "Dah-rius". The first pronunciation is driving me up the walls, lol.
As soon as the narrator mentioned super-intelligent AI, I thought of the future as seen in "The Terminator." There was a time when space stations, rockets to the moon and to Mars were comic-book stuff. Interesting how that goes.
@@NoProtocol "Terminator" was the film that put Arnold Schwarzenegger on the movie map; he played the title cyborg. "Colossus: The Forbin Project" is another movie (and book) that came to mind, though it's years earlier. Both involve computers getting "smart" and deciding humanity was a problem, and both are more complex than the description I give here. I don't want to spoil either film in case you decide to watch them, so that's all I'll say for now!
Um, I'm not in any position to make an informed comment on the possibilities of life in the world beyond my horizons but I'd say you should listen to Storm Warning, by Latyrx.

There is so much talk about the impact AI is having at this moment but considering that the intelligence community is commonly thought to be ten years ahead technologically, what if singularity occurs without any of us knowing it? What if it already has? : )
@@tonyod.1161 And it never will. For well defined situations, like playing chess, it is already better than humans, but only because the 'error surface' is practically eliminated, not because it's more intelligent. AI is overhyped, because the industry is full of salespeople. There's as much intelligence in AI as there is grass in astroturf, it makes the whole AI-singularity postulation pointless. A non-AI singularity, on the other hand, I would say that has already happened.
Space hotel didn't happen. 1 km building is on hold. I also will never go to the space tin-can hotel lol cause F that! And I also will prolly never call it "cutter" =) This video reminds of an old Chinese curse: "May you live in interesting times."
The one thing we do know for certain that most likely most predictions for the future will be proven nonsense and only illustratitve of the mindset at the time these "predictions" were made. Technology, AI, ML is now developing so exponentiallt fast that 2050, being 27 years from now, it's uninmaginable where we and society with us will have arrived it. 27 years ago was 1996, just think about where mobile phones, computers, internet were at in 1996 and where it is now; the further you project into the future the number of unknown variables that will influence that future will also increase exponentially and make it that more unlikely that today you would be even in the vicinity of a correct prediction, but I get it, it's a fun fantasy game to entertain. That's also why all these climate change projections and projected ways of dealing with this expected future catastrophy are complete nonsense and will not make one bit of difference (not that they are supposed to, that particular agenda serves very different purposes). Even among the few pretty easy to predict future events, easy as they are actually scheduled, we can only see, even mere 6 years after they made it, that some events that according to this should have happened by now, simply haven't for one reason or another, those were events expected to happen within 2 or 3 years after they made that video, so how likely will a projected future 33 years after they made this be a likelihood.
Well you younguns can see the future, I'll be long gone. Are you seriously reading Hemingway in Spanish? Most Americans haven't read him in English. How intelligent are you? You are starting to really fascinate me. What is your generalized background?
I just read that particular book in Spanish because it wasn’t available in English where I was. I speak Spanish, so intelligence really has nothing to do with it haha thanks though
Due to current Relations with Russia and the Country that Stole back their space equipment and kicked the Russian Peace Keepers out earlier this year. Kazakhstani is the country that expelled Russia if I am not mistaken.
The pronunciation of "Qatar" is an issue with most non-Arabs. (Including myself.) "KUH-ter" is close enough for foreigners. The /q/ sound is mostly absent from Egyptian Arabic and Levantine Arabic, the most common dialects; they avoid the /q/ sound except when carefully pronouncing literary or Quranic words; in ordinary speech the /q/ is usually a nearly silent glottal stop in Egypt, Lebanon, Syria, and Palestine. Qataris and other Gulf Arabs pronounce the Q in the Classical Arabic fashion, a /k/ pronounced much further back in the throat; non-Arabs can get away with a /k/. I believe it's North African Arabs, mostly living in France, who popularized the /g/ sound and thus the highly incorrect "gutter"; Iraqis always pronounce the letter "qof" as a /g/. The /t/ is also pronounced in an unfamiliar fashion, a pharyngeal rather than a dental T. One peculiarity about Qatari pronunciation is one would expect the emphasis on the second syllable in most Arabic dialects, but Gulf Arabs move it the front in "Qatar" even though both vowels are short and there are no doubled, "geminated" consonants. So it's never "kuh-TAR" except, I guess, among non-Qatari Arabs.
I say Qatar, but I know some people say Qatar... I believe the right way is Qatar, but if you think Qatar is better I'm ok with it
Woah woah woah hol’up, it’s obviously pronounced “Qatar” not “Qatar” or “Qatar”
You’re both wrong. It’s Qatar. 🙄
I knew I was mistaken when saying qatar when it's actually qatar, thank you for educating me on qatar

@ravenward626 Hmm Australia is not feeling too happy economic-wise. Weve just had a huge hike in costs. People now living in cars in relatives driveways etc.
But unfortunately heads of Universities, Charities, and others are getting paid over 1 million/year.
We are just about to lose our suburban look and feel as well as they want us to grow up instead of grow old.
Lastly some of this growth is being managed by foreign interests to the stage that there is no consistency or control over the changes, and in some cases, English has disappeared from some suburban areas so yeah there's a lot of uncontrolled change.
Some of the assumptions are indicative of where they get their information from and where they lean (ie The ice caps will be gone!)
Micho Kaku's "Physics of the Future" is a good book. It's a look at predictions of future technology based on current work and patents. Things like edricating cancer through means of early detection. Lime having a smart toilet that examines and analyzes daily waste. So when it detects something that could be an indicator worth noting, it can send the information directly to your Doctor.
I find the idea of hundreds of people on Mars by 2050 more than a little fanciful. We’ve been capable of building orbital space stations for decades yet there’s only ever been one. A round trip to Mars and back with some time spent there will be at least 2.5 years, and the survivability of such a trip is dubious. Each trip will be extraordinarily expensive, and involve only a handful of astronauts at a time. Huge amounts of construction will be necessary for any kind of permanent quarters for even a couple dozen people, much less hundreds. Huge amounts of construction will require huge amounts of really expensive equipment. For that to be feasible we will have to have mastered space based or moon based manufacturing to avoid the unthinkable cost of rocketing hundreds or thousands of tons of equipment from the gravity well of earth.
Technological advancements in material science don’t move at the rate that data processing does, and the hard, material advancements are what will be required in order to overcome such towering challenges. It will require patient, multi generational resolve, and armies of some of the most brilliant people on Earth.
Here’s my prediction: By 2050 we will have sent about as many people to Mars as we have currently sent to the Moon. There will be no permanent presence.
I mostly agree. By then we have powerful Ai + robotics. Perhaps it could help us solve some of the problems.
@@littleDainolf, good point. That could potentially change the entire landscape.
on top of computers and robotics helping with travel, if nuclear fuel is used that would cut down travel time immensely.
Aside from Qatar (and many other), there's another name which is pronounced two ways in English: Darius. You'll either hear "Duh-rai-us" or "Dah-rius". The first pronunciation is driving me up the walls, lol.
Hopefully, I'll have a kind robot take care of me in 2050 which is the year I'll turn 94. (Oh my!)
Hemingway is one of the best writers.
Yeah... 2020 is very eventful alright.
As soon as the narrator mentioned super-intelligent AI, I thought of the future as seen in "The Terminator." There was a time when space stations, rockets to the moon and to Mars were comic-book stuff. Interesting how that goes.
I’ve never seen the Terminator actually
@@NoProtocol check it out! You won’t be disappointed. Highly recommended just the first 2. Lol
@@NoProtocol "Terminator" was the film that put Arnold Schwarzenegger on the movie map; he played the title cyborg. "Colossus: The Forbin Project" is another movie (and book) that came to mind, though it's years earlier. Both involve computers getting "smart" and deciding humanity was a problem, and both are more complex than the description I give here. I don't want to spoil either film in case you decide to watch them, so that's all I'll say for now!
@@NoProtocol 1 is good, 2 is an all timer action movie.
Fun video.
The hotel in space became Blue Origin, Virgin Atlantic, SpaceX, with their short hops to space, with SpaceX leading the way...imo
Um, I'm not in any position to make an informed comment on the possibilities of life in the world beyond my horizons but I'd say you should listen to Storm Warning, by Latyrx.
Well we know for sure that the whole world will be under water. So there's that.
Read " The Deluge" by Stephen Markley!
JEFF was HERE 🏆
Hi Jeff
@@NoProtocol 👋 🕊️
ou..ok , getting hate comments already :D so i as You (No Protocol) , do You check the source, who makes these videos? You seem like a really,reallllllllyy smart girl, it seems, that You would benifit more, from watching smart things. of course, its how You want
Sorry, off topic, but you're wearing my favorite flannel. Is that Duluth?
I don’t know it’s brand actually! I bought it from a vintage store 10 years+ ago so the tag is unreadable now haha
@No Protocol mine is the exact same pattern. It's so worn that I just wear it around the house. 😄
Same, it’s so comfy
There is so much talk about the impact AI is having at this moment but considering that the intelligence community is commonly thought to be ten years ahead technologically, what if singularity occurs without any of us knowing it? What if it already has? : )
I'll take bets on the icecaps NOT melting.
What make you say that? I take it by icecaps you mean polar ice in the Arctic and Antarctic.
Awesome novel!!!!
2050? that would make me 94 yrs old. Hmm, I dont think so. Good luck y'all.
9:25 I don't think Putin listened that advice
I don't thing any of the mars things will happen and if they make it there, they sure as hell won't stay and work there.
Qatar rhymes with guitar.
great video.
Thanks for watching Jared!
wow... there is a church that can afford to be under construction for ... how long was that? Long time. Achingly long time.
Hopefully, we get a country called otisburg
I like the name
Do a video on psychedelics.
I'll be 80, hope they sort the aging shit out ;)
Not only did he miss the coof, he completely missed the rise of AI. That's probably one of the most important things since the internet was invented
The prediction was about when will AI surpass the human intelligence. And that's not happened yet.
@@tonyod.1161 And it never will. For well defined situations, like playing chess, it is already better than humans, but only because the 'error surface' is practically eliminated, not because it's more intelligent. AI is overhyped, because the industry is full of salespeople. There's as much intelligence in AI as there is grass in astroturf, it makes the whole AI-singularity postulation pointless.
A non-AI singularity, on the other hand, I would say that has already happened.
AI will be far sooner than 2040s.
What will happen before 2050. You shall come to Minnesota to give me a hug muahahahahaha.
Space hotel didn't happen. 1 km building is on hold. I also will never go to the space tin-can hotel lol cause F that! And I also will prolly never call it "cutter" =) This video reminds of an old Chinese curse: "May you live in interesting times."
The one thing we do know for certain that most likely most predictions for the future will be proven nonsense and only illustratitve of the mindset at the time these "predictions" were made. Technology, AI, ML is now developing so exponentiallt fast that 2050, being 27 years from now, it's uninmaginable where we and society with us will have arrived it. 27 years ago was 1996, just think about where mobile phones, computers, internet were at in 1996 and where it is now; the further you project into the future the number of unknown variables that will influence that future will also increase exponentially and make it that more unlikely that today you would be even in the vicinity of a correct prediction, but I get it, it's a fun fantasy game to entertain.
That's also why all these climate change projections and projected ways of dealing with this expected future catastrophy are complete nonsense and will not make one bit of difference (not that they are supposed to, that particular agenda serves very different purposes).
Even among the few pretty easy to predict future events, easy as they are actually scheduled, we can only see, even mere 6 years after they made it, that some events that according to this should have happened by now, simply haven't for one reason or another, those were events expected to happen within 2 or 3 years after they made that video, so how likely will a projected future 33 years after they made this be a likelihood.
No one is going to Mars anytime soon. Especially not SpaceX. There are way too many problems that haven't been addressed yet.
Cutter (Qatar)? What kind of drugs is that guy on?
I call it "Cut her" because I know the culture.
A Russian mission to land on the moon by 2031? I believe it when I see it.
The only things guaranteed in this video are that Elon musk won’t do any of the things he said he’d do by those dates lol
No ice in the Artic, hahaha
Elon gonna be a trillionaire by 2025 and the singularity gonna happen by 2026 smh it was good while it lasted.
Well you younguns can see the future, I'll be long gone. Are you seriously reading Hemingway in Spanish? Most Americans haven't read him in English. How intelligent are you? You are starting to really fascinate me. What is your generalized background?
I just read that particular book in Spanish because it wasn’t available in English where I was. I speak Spanish, so intelligence really has nothing to do with it haha thanks though
Hey ❤
Due to current Relations with Russia and the Country that Stole back their space equipment and kicked the Russian Peace Keepers out earlier this year. Kazakhstani is the country that expelled Russia if I am not mistaken.
the whole "living on Mars " thing, wont happen . people been saying this for many years.
Femern connection will not be finished next year. 2029 is what is the aim now.
The pronunciation of "Qatar" is an issue with most non-Arabs. (Including myself.) "KUH-ter" is close enough for foreigners.
The /q/ sound is mostly absent from Egyptian Arabic and Levantine Arabic, the most common dialects; they avoid the /q/ sound except when carefully pronouncing literary or Quranic words; in ordinary speech the /q/ is usually a nearly silent glottal stop in Egypt, Lebanon, Syria, and Palestine. Qataris and other Gulf Arabs pronounce the Q in the Classical Arabic fashion, a /k/ pronounced much further back in the throat; non-Arabs can get away with a /k/. I believe it's North African Arabs, mostly living in France, who popularized the /g/ sound and thus the highly incorrect "gutter"; Iraqis always pronounce the letter "qof" as a /g/. The /t/ is also pronounced in an unfamiliar fashion, a pharyngeal rather than a dental T.
One peculiarity about Qatari pronunciation is one would expect the emphasis on the second syllable in most Arabic dialects, but Gulf Arabs move it the front in "Qatar" even though both vowels are short and there are no doubled, "geminated" consonants. So it's never "kuh-TAR" except, I guess, among non-Qatari Arabs.
Thank you for the detailed explanation.
So . After watching that . Who's excited about the future ? 😄
after russia lands a man on the moon, they plan to work on indoor plumming next
In 2023 no protocol will reach 1 million subs
