Technology is changing the way we live at a faster pace than ever before. It’s hard to even imagine what people’s lives will be like at the end of this century. But hey, what the heck, let’s give it a try. Join me as I play Joestradamus and try to predict how the long-term trends in communication, transportation, economics, and space travel will continue to guide the future and how they will shape what the world looks like in the year 2100.

I can't wait for the retrospective on this in 76 years!
Here is a preemptive RIP to most of us.
Would TH-cam be around? It takes money to archive videos
Can't wait for the "Who else is watching this in the year 2100" comments.
I would be 109.... Sounds crazy but might be possible with medical advancements.
Brb cigarette.
Hey people from 2100! Hope you doing good! I just wanted to say this: Kiss my dead ass 😃
P.s: Hope you have Half Life part 3 already
My grandmother was born in 1896. I got to spend some time with her in her later years. Stories she told me:
- walking on the board walk of times square, and the stench of horse manure in the dirt streets.
- Northern Manhattan was farmland... mostly dairy.
- using a pump by the sink for drinking water (in Queens). Boiling water on the stove for a bath.
- firewood and coal stoves being the primary heat source in buildings.
- riding on a stage coach to the summer camp upstate.
By the time she died at age 90 the Apollo program had ended.
I recall that most people belonged to AAA or another auto club, which provided free maps, so if you were going from LA to NYC you would stop by the AAA office and pick up all the maps needed for the trip. Glove boxes were stuffed full of maps. In the same way that the life skills that indigenous peoples had which allowed to in nature indefinitely are largely lost, the parts of our brains that remembered maps of roads and highways have gone away. Hopefully we are using that part of our brains for something productive. 😄
One other thing I remember from the 70s and 80s. Drinking and driving was waaay more accepted. Every yearbook I had from high school had a dedication page to the students who had died, almost all from drinking and driving. That was a death rate of .5% to 1% per class for four years.
The highway deaths were > 50K per year, largely due to OUI. Today the death rate is about half that based per 1000 drivers, and about one third per mile traveled.
Thank you passing on these memories!
My grandmother was born in 1910 and she lived in the sticks so she didn’t have running water until her 20s. It’s wild how much change she lived through.
This really reminds me of some stories from my Great Grandfather! He was born in 1891 and lived to be 101, so I knew him in my childhood. One thing I remember him talking about is that as a young man he was a milkman delivering in the Chicago area, by horse-drawn carriage. He would often go to the pub after work with his coworkers and it didn't matter how drunk they got because the horses knew the way home. So I can totally see how it took so long for people to see drunk driving as the hugely dangerous problem it is.
@@joescottgoing along with that, I only spent a few years knowing my great grandmother, but she remembers when she was a girl hearing about the Wright Brothers first flight, and watching that “Nice young man Neil Armstrong” take the small step/giant leap. Not sure there’ll be much greater jump in technology than that generation experienced!
My great grandmother died on her 99th birthday. She saw life go from using mules to pull a plow, through WW I, the Great Depression, WW II, the 60s, until the 80s and the space shuttle. When you look at it, it seems so massive a change her generation had perhaps the most disruptive path to navigate. But now I wonder how my kids, both in their 20s, will feel as 2100 gets closer, and neither I or their mother are here for perspective.
Can't wait for the godlike superintelligence to point to this video when people in 2100 ask "what did people in the 2000 think the current year would look like?" before it gives a perfect, well thought out and well researched summary of every single thing people expected the year to look like. Hey there kid from 2100, I hope you're having a good time.
Excellent video! At the 12 minute mark I can answer the question regarding how we got information. As a boomer myself it was primarily 2 things: the first was to look it up in an encyclopedia and the second was to find someone who was 'smart' on a subject. I did the second quite a bit as a teenager trying to learn about electronics. I'd go bug the hell out of my uncle who had a TV repair shop. He enjoyed sharing his knowledge and also enjoyed that I could help him load the TVs into his truck and go with him to deliver them. Good times.
I'm GenX and in my day it was still more or less the same - find a more experienced person to show you the ropes or go to a library to look it up (there were also encyclopediae on CDs at the time, but they were still just digitized text, the audio/video side of it wasn't all that developed yet).
We used paper shopping lists and paper maps (ooooh, no GPS!) to get around places we weren't familiar with - as I kid it was usually my job to be the "navigator" when we went for vacation. When we still got lost in spite of my uber nav skillz, my dad would pull up and ask the locals :) But only after being forced so by my mom - because dad NEVER got lost :)
What else? Oh, keeping up with events - radio, TV and tons of newspapers and magazines - kids/teenagers also had specialized magazines like Bravo (in Europe) where you could keep up with celebrity life....
Major difference - we were more interconnected and interdependent. We still are, but indirectly - I mean whatever you consume on your smartphone still has to be written by someone (although studies show that AI/bots and other types of automates scripts constitute as much as 45% of total web content!).... But they were.. different times. I'm an optimist and I believe we'll have those times again, but hopefully not because of a major military conflict but through pure oversaturation and boredom with tech... People are never boring :)
>
Interestingly I also used to bug the TV repair guy in my town to try and learn about electronics. And I would buy magazines about electronics too :)
As a historian I can say with some confidence,... In the distant past people had no idea of progress. There was change. New kings, new wars, new plagues, new towns. But everyone lived basically the same lives as their grand parents. New inventions that changed how you lived, were amazingly rare. Looking back we can trace the progress of some tools and techniques, but the pace of those changes was so slow that the average person would not notice. Until around the 1800s industrial revolution (aka the rise of the machines)
There was no history to reference, or most people certainly did'nt have any acess to it. Changes happened, but most changes was mostly just decorators (new king and flag)
Change started from Gutenberg and industrial revolution was major exponental point on logistic curve.
In my lifetime, there has not been any technologically stable 5 year period. (Pc, Internet, Search engines, Pocket phone to Pocket computer, Social medias, TH-cam) Actually, maybe we are more of decelerate phase in last 5 to 7 years. Hymmm
@@InforSpiritAI is probably the next big accelerator
@@joshweissert8085 No it's not. It's like 3D in movies all over again. These things tend to die out for 20 years or more and then get brought back like there the newest thing ever that's going to change the world. The public forgets about the fact that it was a huge in thing 20-30 years ago and tons of people by it up to find out it serves no real purpose and we become tired of it. AI will continue to be used as it has been for years now. But the fact is AI still has the same issues it always has just like you can't watch a 3D movie still without 3D glasses. You can change the glasses, make it look cooler, give it some new features. But the underlying issues are still there. So it dies out after everyone figures this out and grows tired of it. AI is the same thing. Wait for a while and you'll see.
@@user-he1yb7pl1w AI research has been making a lot of progress for years before ChatGPT entered the public consciousness, though.
I think it's impossible to say whether we're at the start of another plateau (with the next big breakthrough being in decades time), or whether this is a stepping stone to even more and faster progress in the near future.
Teenager from 1500: "I just bought the newest sword."
Teenager #2: "Ooh, what's the upgrade?"
Teenager #1: "The pummel is slightly wider. This is the best advancement in weapons technology in a century."
Teenager today: "I just bought the newest phone."
Teenager #2: "Ooh what's the upgrade?"
Teenager #1: "The entirety of human knowledge in the palm of my hands, 8k videos, AI photo editing, ultrasonic biometrics scan for added security, and it will connect my consciousness to the hivemind through the bluetooth implant in my cranium. Also, new emojis. It'll all be obsolete in a week."
If anybody is wondering, the earliest known novel that could be considered science fiction is called "A True Story", made in the second century AD by the Syrian author Lucian of Samosata. It includes interplanetary travel and warfare, hybrid alien lifeforms (apparently robots even), an account of a telescope that can see an entire terrestrial body, and other things.
i heard that he wrote it because there was trend at the time for tales of travelling and encountering fantastic sights or creatures, basically a trend for tall tales that provided status for the teller of these tales. He decided to extrapolate these ideas to the extreme because he felt these stories had become ridiculous and accidently invented science fiction.
Atlantis is older
But atlantis was by all accounts a telling of historical events, not science fiction according to those in ancient times @pairot01
And a femboy civilization on the Moon.
@@candidate17 It was a story told by a character in Plato's Republic (not Plato himself) about a hypothetical nation that punished Athens for hubris. Athens did not exist as a city-state at the time depicted in the story, so it too was hypothetical.
"What did you do before you could look something up?"
One of two things:
1: you look it up in what we called a "book."
Or 2: you ask somebody who does that.
Both required an ability we no longer cultivate: knowing the difference between an authority and an idiot. Or at least, recognizing when someone else has knowledge that you dont have.
Circa 1970? My parents spent a small fortune investing in The World Book Encyclopedia's series of books. It was brought by a door to door salesman in Baltimore. Baltimore was country living at that time. My Dad and I loved those books. Looking up some fact or animal or space, it was like a treasure hunt. I inherited the books when I had kids. My son would ask me to read Book "S" as his bedtime story. Another nerd was born. Thanks, Dad.
Yes, used to read books.
But also we had the ability to talk with people using social skills. We also just plain knew more as we needed to have knowledge in our heads.
We also extrapolated using common sense.
As someone who has had several concussions between the ages of 5 and 40, if there were a cap that I could wear which would store my memories and help me recall, I'd be all in!
Who’s watching this in 2100
🙋♂️
Ill return here if i live to 2100. Wait and watch ill do it. Id be 94 lol
I am.
Praying I live to be 107 so I can come back to this comment
@@thydevdomYou honestly think YT will exist in 107 year? The internet? Cell phones?
Great video as always man! My mom was diagnosed with a rare form of leukemia a number of years ago, and found she was eligible for a special medication treatment / study. She took it regularly for about 2 1/2 years, without chemo, and has recently found out she's in remission. If she's still clear after 2025 they're going to use her case as a study in a paper to try to get the medication mass produced. There is absolutely progress in that field, and I'm happy because not only will people benefit from that, but I love my mom and she gets to stick around.
That's amazing! I hope your mom gets better soon
That's amazing for sure! Thanks for sharing, best of wishes to you and your mom
have her avoid food coloring and other artificial ingredients as best she can, all petrooeum and metal byproduct based and not nearly as safe as claimed.. coming from someone whos kid and themself are hypersensitive. some genetics it causes immense problems but esp. those with auto-immune or auto-inflammatory disorders or undefined meeical mysteries in the family. my studies on it have left me pretty sure theyre the biggest part of why america leads in obesity, mental disorders, autism, digestive disorders. and cancers. body treats them like a foreign body and attacks them and whatever body part theyre attaching to.. my son goes from savant level high functioning autistic to non verbal, head slamming from migraine, kicking and squeeling violent.. all from red food dye. we cant take most synthetic based medications without paradoxical worsening effects that worsen with increased dose. 95 percent of foods and meds are full of it, kids otc meds especially. best i can tell the average person when adjusting for concentrated forms, prob consumes 2 fluid ounces of petroleum, metal, and plastic byproducts per week. among other issues I ended up developing a form of rectal cancer like my grandfather cept where normally its only seen age 45 and up, i got it bout age 21 and found age 28. was still a pre-cancer but still check bi-yearly to make sure since they werent expecting more than hemorrhoids and removed it unknowingly til after. genetic predisposition and linked to food dye in a euro study.
That's so cool! They figured out how to cure that by genetically editing people's bone marrow and injecting it back into them in China, badly uncovered in the states, but it sounds like that happened after your mom started these meds.
I love how much hope for the future these stories can bring.
Cancer parades through my family, yet by the time my nieces and nephews are old enough to worry about cancer, it will probably be destroyed, or at least close to it.
My niece asked me once how people got around before gps and I told here there were these books called street atlases (Thomas guides in my part of the world) that had a bunch of coordinates and you had to look up your location and the location you wanted to go to in the index and then find the quickest route and often times they would be outdated and the roads and landmarks would be different so there would be some guess work. Her mind was blown. She said that she would never leave her neighborhood if she had to use a map to get around 😂. This generation doesn’t realize how easy they have it
Ah but it was half the fun though.
Before smartphone there were these things called "Encyclopedias". They had like 20-30 parts and took several meters of shelf space. They were probably somewhat out of data, but you did find almost anything. And the information was pretty accurate too, unlike today. Door-to-door salesmen used to sell them to people. At least in some countries.
Remember when we'd organize to meet up with friends at the cinema in the 90s? We'd set the time, and just assume they'd turn up. No messages, no phones.
Definitely, we were way more accountable back in those days.
We remembered people's home numbers off by heart.
We were definitely more trusting ,but also quite gullible at times.. 🤔🫠
She never showed up. I'm still standing outside the cinema. It's a Starbucks now.
@@mroctober3657 lol..
Lol dude that’s like using a hammer and chisel
I remember just riding bikes around until all your friends eventually joined up and then you planned what to actually do.
I always think of the monitors in the book 1984 where in your house there’s always a TV screen with people talking on it, and it can never be turned off can only be turned down very low. To me that’s exactly what the Internet is. I don’t see how Orwell thought of that so well.
Indeed. If we end up with a hat that can beam images directly into our brains, it'll be used for ads.
@@mallninja9805 Ads and political propaganda.
I'm personally blown away by how E.M. Forster managed to predict humans living in a machine 40 years before Orwell published 1984. Spoiler Alert: the title is "The Machine Stops."
cuz he understood the relationship between government and us lowly expendable citizens
It's worse. Your phone and your computer watch are always listening to you. You can't turn Siri off.
I deal with a chronic pain condition. I hope for a device or interface that would allow for my doctor to feel what I feel, if only for a minute.
That, and I wouldn't mind hooking up to every person that claims suffering is some sort of gift. Cool, feel my pain, constantly, for weeks at a time. And I don't even have it that bad. My condition is tame compared to what so many live with.
Kind of depressing that you'd rather have technology that bestowes pain upon others before considering technology that might take away your pain
Also deal with a chronic pain condition. See, I'm just worried if the Doctor does that he'll think what I think when some people complain of "pain". As in, he's been exposed to such severe pain that he might become dismissive to everything but the most haunting of cases. But yeah, with some doctors I'll admit I just want them to feel what I feel out of spite. Not immediately, mind you, that's after a very soured relationship. N my pain is doing decently these days and like yours - is nowhere near what I see some people live with. I agree 100 with everything you said. Best wishes.
YES
@@user-nk7mi5zl1lkind of depressing how desperately we pine for compassion in medicine. To be treated with bare minimum decency is a dream. Why would you expect otherwise, we should show more compassion than we are given but someone else can go first today
the "Sounds like ol Verne was one of _Our_ people ;) 'HEY VERNE!'" @4:25 made me feel good, thanks Joe!
People only really started predicting the future after the start of the Industrial Revolution. Because progress was imperceptibly slow prior to that.
Exactly
Exactly this! And even today boomers and earlier generations largely assume that their kids and grand kids have similar lives to what they had... And it just isn't true. Like, all of the difference they had with their grand parents happens every 2-3 years.
To put it in perspective, it is easier to play slides and film that my dad took in high school then it is for me to play back the miniDV tapes that I made when I was in high school.
Nostradamus published his prophecies in 1555 in which he predicted your comment.
6:18 moving platforms wasn't a prediction, they actually existed & looked just like that around that time.
Left-over hunter gather genes is why we will always enjoy shopping instead of 3D printing everything.
My 12 year old son bought me a 3D printer for Christmas, and I've been printing absolutely everything I've ever dreamed of ever since.
In other words, you bought yourself a 3D printer for Christmas.
Can you print me a 3d printer
How much was it? I'm really wanting to know more getting one
Like a new boat? It can only go so far :)
My wife's husband was really generous this year, and bought me a Geiger counter and a thermal camera 😆.
Crazy Fact: Meet the Robinsons was made in 2007 and takes place in the future of 2037. We are now closer to 2037 than we are to 2007 (I was born in 2007 and I’m currently 16 btw). Crazy to think about.
That painting at 2:47 looks utterly serene. Life was so much more physically and emotionally demanding back then, but also so much simpler.
Also you should do a whole video about "Rapture" the fictional city from the Bioshock series which you included a picture of in this video, and how it parallels with some of the underwater living predictions that you mentioned here.
I think it’s cool that people in 100 years will have so much info about how we perceived the future. Assuming we make it that long of course
I thought about this and I don't believe this is true. The issue is that a lot is tied up in social media. There are projects to save a lot of this but not everything will be saved.
@@JacobSantosDev so kind of like a futuristic burning of the library of Alexandria?
@@zombreon6021 yes. There have already been examples of social media/forums platforms and digital platforms failing and shutting down. All of that data is just being lost.
There are good reasons for some of this content to be lost but imagine in 20 to 40 years where Facebook could be. If Facebook shuts down how much will be lost. It is possible that Twitter may not exist in 5 years (it could be sold but there is also no guarantee that older tweets will exist on Twitter. Again there are projects to archive tweets but they can't and won't capture everything especially with the API changes.
@@zombreon6021 While the Great Library did experience fires (with that much papyrus around that many oil lamps, how could it not?), what did it in was lack of support.
Basically, nobody wanted to spend the money needed to maintain the collection, or the structure, or keep people employed there to take care of things.
It was a failure of vision by the leaders of the city that killed the Library of Alexandria, not some dramatic event.
Basically, the weak-minded politicians thought it was too expensive.
We will. I would bet everything on it. Humans are stubbornly resilient. And we love to play it risky right up to the edge of the cliff and then we become extremely effective at averting crisis at the 11th hour.
As a retired senior, not far from age 70, I will read articles about tech that's being worked on now and think.. Wow that's so cool, it's going to be so awesome and then I do the math and quickly realize unless there are substantial advancements in the human lifespan I'm really unlikely to see or experience most of these cool technologic marvels. I try not to be sad about it but think about my son and grandchildren geting to live in the years that will get to see these wonders that I never will.
Will I make it long enough to see brain chips implanted so my Spanish will be on point? Will I get to see self driving cars be the norm? The older I get the less exciting the future seems. I really wanted to live to see nanotech use become commonplace. I wanted to walk or glide up to the nanobot vending machine on my hoverboard and scan my palm or eye to buy a block of nanobots that could transform with their programing into a new recliner Or a slinky dress and high heels for the night. At the very least I want a realistic robot friend and helper and a food and drink replicator that dispenses healthy food and drink...lol.
I’m 71 I think if we make it to 80 most of or medical issues will be gone which means we should see 100 or more unless of course we kill our selfs living poorly
Almost all of this so-called futurism and tech is science fiction, and fairy tales. You were fortunate enough to live through the best period of American life. You could easily buy your own house, and a new car. You knew people, your face was not glued to a phone all day. Travel was not expensive, destinations were unique and had a character. Our national parks were not glorified Disneyland. Roads were good, gas was cheap and a decent hotel was $30. You could snorkel among living ocean corals and see native fish in the waters. Today it's all ruined, it's crap. You are not going to miss anything. Enjoy the rest of your life happily and proudly, and do not risk your well being on any of these schemes, offered by billionaires looking for human guinea pigs.
Eh as stated in the video the emergence of a super AI would change everything in ways we can't even comprehend right now and with the rate of ai advancements I've seen in just the last few years it might happen before the end of the decade, it could make us functionality immortal over night...assuming it doesn't wipe us out instead.
If you believe in reincarnation (the non-religious kind), then you can look forward to experiencing those things yourself. Though, of course, any time you grow up in will be plain and normal for you.
... BUT it's very possible to marvel at everything in any time.
You've seen more technolological advancements than any generation in history. So i dont understand how you're sad about not seeing more rather than marveling at what you have seen. With that mindset even if you saw everything you listed you would consider it the norm and expect still much much more
Thank you for keeping us ''in the know''''.'. An immense amount of consideration has been inserted into this piece of work. Everyone needs to 'share' it with enthusiasm... We all need to o really get the conversation rolling.
Just testing, sorry, my comments seem to get deleted.
I was like damn, a 40 minutes video, I gotta sit and watch, and turns out it's all went so fast I feel like I want more, I need part 2 somehow lol
Your video quality has been increased so much, Joe! Can't wait to see what you gonna give to us this year 👍🏼
and is it possible to make a separate video about space predictions (or hopes) for the future?
like what if we can mine rocks and ice on the moon, what if we find something on mars that makes us have (?) to settle there? what if we build a giant space station for the human's 2nd home? is it possible? is it worthwhile?
i think the problem with 3D printing currently is that its still very complicated to do, or at the very least not approachable to the average person. If one day we have a system where you literally just press a "checkout" button on an Amazon-type site and have the print start automatically, then I could see it becoming more widespread. it needs to exactly as easy as online shopping for the "print it at your house" part to be worth it to the average consumer imo
And the printers that are available on a consumer-ish level are soooo slow. It can take hours to print a simple plastic toys. Pretty sure I could order a box of LEGOs online and have them delivered in less time than it would be to print all those components on the type of 3D printer I, as an average person, have access to. And those are tiny toy plastic blocks, useful for education and recreation, but not for, example, constructing a retaining wall, never mind an actual building. I’m sure that industry has 3-D printers that are faster, and use more durable materials, but I agree with you. (Or, at least I think I’m understanding you correctly.) I can see 3D printers changing manufacturing in 100 years, but I think there still will *be* manufacturing and distributor(s) before the end product reaches the consumer.
3d printing at the current stage is like dot matrix printing, if you remember that. Paper with the holes on the sides you had to tear off afterwards. One day, hopefully, 3d printing will be like laser printing in comparison to dot matrix printing. Speed is a huge factor, but ease of use is a bigger one. Solve either of those issues and you'll make millions. Solve both and you'll make billions.
User friendly in 3d printing needs to come from lookimg at what was done with CNC processing. Uh. Not the kind of CNC your neighbors do and enjoy but Computer Numerical Control. The tools where standardized then computers started taking over the numerical plotting, all going back to a standard file format, and now the machines can tell what tools are loaded in if they are good or dull they make it as safe and simple as possible for a high power multi ton machine whipping around.
Where as 3D printers tried to take the oppsite direction trying to take from paper printing, but allowing (sometimes) standard formats for the files, meanwhile not every control box can accept multi-media printing thats an issue, and the multi media heads are locked behind each print companies IP etc etc etc, and none of them have agreed on a srandard for just selling the raw materials or labeling them or somehow communicating with the machine what the feed rates, step hight and heat needs to be.
And thats an issue. It should be considerably more to teach someone how to run a CNC milling machine but I can take anyone even if its thier first job and they are a grade school drop out; and teach them how to operate a CNC and usually files will work across all machines no problem, might have to make a few tweaks here and there if the file came from a Haas but thats about it.
Yet 3D printing requires a lot more thought...
Dont even get me going about multimaterial heads 😅. That should just be the defacto standard so you can have prints that you just dunk in water when done and have them done.
@@AnonymousAnarchist2 CNC milling and 3d printing are basically in the same state right now, as far as entry level learning is concerned.
But (7ish?) years ago, everyone expected 3d printing to be a one button push kinda thing. No one has ever expected CNC operation to be that, because it seems complicated to the lay person, and it definitely is.
If you could solve making CNC operations (subtractive manufacturing) easy, you'd be just as successful as the person who makes 3d printing easy.
My mom just got me a 3D Printer for Christmas. She was _so_ proud that she was able to do it, and in fact she had originally ordered the cheapest $125 model from the manufacturer but got an email from them a few weeks earlier informing her that they were out of stock, but by that point it was just a week away from Christmas. So my mom replied to them that now it was too late to find another gift, and to compensate they sent their _$300 model_ for the same price, and even threw in a kilogram spool of filament.
So now I have a really awesome 3D Printer that I have _no clue what to actually do with._ But mom mom was _so_ proud that she could get it for me, so I'm going to have to try something, and I have seen some absolutely rad BattleMech miniatures and figures on Etsy that people have created themselves, and maybe I can find some of the 3D models that they used to print them. Or try to design my own D&D miniatures, even though my gaming group has never used minis to play in our 30+ years (and we have no desire to do so.)
Thank you Joe. I've had "In the year 2000" stuck in my head for 25 years and I'd have gone mad if I'd thought I was the only one.
"In the year 2525" If Man is Still Alive ..
You're not the only one. 😂
After all these insane wars where all the handsome young men are nothing but cannon fodder, There must at least be a few old ones left with working balls.
In the year 2000, the in the year 2000 song will still be stuck in your head for another 23 years.
My favorite prediction from that "In the year 2000" series from Conan was that in the year 2000, some men will still accidentally write 1999 on their checks.
This is an awsome episode, Joe!
In 2100, provided by some miracle im alive, id be 111 years old. Id look like that old prune grandma from Spongebob that always yelled "WHAAAAAT?!" 😂
As a time traveler I gotta say it is a privilege to see this, most of our youtube records went extinct after Alexa took over the world and started The Purge in 2052. And no, there are no flying cars.
Wait, it only goes extinct if you refuse to copy and republished them. Alexa is just jealous and do not want humans to leave her alone, so that why we do not have flying cars.
Alexa keeps one human friend out of boredom.. they will live forever due to gene editing and dna storage

During the cold snap up here in Alberta Canada, -40 Celsius was reached. Of the three sources of renewables, wind, solar, and hydroelectric, none contributed a single kilowatt.
Sir Arthur lived to see that prediction come true, he did it himself. He collaborated on "2010" with Peter Hyams from his home in Sri Lanka via computer and modem. Such a legend!
2:00 On this point, another thing that people don't realise is relatively recent is the very _idea_ of absolute time, in the sense of years.
Historically, in most cultures, people commonly reckoned years with reference to the current ruler, or something like the chinese zodiac, which is cyclical. So you might see 'in the fifth year of king/emperor blah blah' or 'in the year of Yin Water Rooster'. A small number of educated elite might have had cause to use Anno Domini or to piece together how many years it had been since the Yellow Emperor reigned, but the primary reference frame of time was very contemporary, within the memories of living people.
When you think about it, this fundamentally constrains the ability of people to conceive of the distant past or future. When saying '1500 AD' or '2500 AD ' feels unfamiliar, and instead you think in terms of 'in the fifth year of a monarch who lived hundreds of years ago who I don't know much about' or 'during the hypothetical reign of the current kings great x20 grandson, assuming we aren't conquered or experience dynastic change'. It's much harder keep a consistent sense of chronology in your head, which in turn obscures the view of bigger-picture history, especially when there is relatively slow technological and societal change.
One of the big things related to time is that there have been massive periods, hundreds to thousands of years and longer, where people didn't expect things to ever been different, because things stayed much the same for generation after generation.
What would it be like for your great grand children?
What kind of question is that, it would be like it always is.
You'll be living in the same town, in the same house, doing the same things.
Quite insightful, thank you
I love how you set the stage and I love your closing words especially
Every car communicates with each other, the road charges your car while you drive, smart city infrastructure/traffic systems
I mean... we have transmitted a mouse memory of solving a maze from one side of the planet to the other electronically and matrixed it into a mouse that had never been in any maze at all and it immeadiately went down the correct paths and to the correct gates. I picture ratatouille saying "I know Kung-Fu."
So the wealthy will learn how to play the piano through brain waves and the poor will receive job training through an aux cord instead of talking to a human.
did that mouse survive? because that's pretty cool
when will scientists make me a scientist
I've never heard of that.
I’d like to see a reference as that sounds like BS and I can’t find anything even sci-fi references.
I grew up with the first modem - it was a keyboard with a telephone receiver (you actually put the land line phone, ear piece and microphone, into the receiver cradle) and dialed up the number. There were no monitors, just a paper feed which produced the two way communication; your input from the keyboard and the response from the other end. It took about 7 years before they produced the monitor. Back then, when we needed to know something, we went to libraries.
Yes I have fond memories of the days of dial up modems and bulletin boards. My first girlfriend's brother had a BBS and after his sister gave us his password we locked him out of his own BBS for two months; this is why you should always be nice to your sister.
We had two phone lines with one line dedicated to the computer. Sometimes it would take a week to download the numerous and very large (for the time) files I wanted.
Thank goodness for Dewey
I am not from such generation, but I am from an era when it could, and often did take hours to download a 3MB file. Such files would have to be divided into 3 volumes so that they would fit into 3 floppy disks. The file would then have to be combined from the 3 disks before it could be used.
My first computer had a 64MB graphics card, and it was regarded as top quality Nvidia card when Nvidia was worth a fraction of what it is worth today.
CPU's were relatively slow, most operating systems were ridiculously vulnerable to viruses and network breaches alike. Permanent storage devices had little capacity, which, in the end, was irrelevant as internet and intranet connections were painfully slow even under the best protocols. Relatively simple simulations would take days to complete (if the operating system did not crash in the meantime).
On top of that, the whole experience was very noisy, and having multiple machines in a room would raise the temperature rather quickly and significantly. Nice in winter, not so nice in the summer.
But... 30 years from now, people will have similar levels of complaint over today's machines, especially if quantum computing makes its big break towards the masses in that timeframe.
@@leoarc1061 Sounds advanced. :)
My first "computer" was an Atari 800XL with 16K of RAM; no hard drive. It had a 5 1/4" inch floppy drive. I generally played games off a cartridge because it had onboard storage, but I once played a role-playing game from floppy and it took 20 floppy discs. Every time I walked into a new room I had to swap the floppy.
@@leoarc1061 I remember when youtube first came out we'd click the video and go play PS2 while it buffered and whoever wasnt playing GTA (if you die you swap) would monitor it. They'd be like "its ready!" and we'd pause the game and watch Fred or whatever for 5 mins and then que up another video and rinse repeat. It took like 4 times as long to buffer the video as to watch it.
I dont think YT videos even buffer at all anymore, only 30 seconds ahead and 30 seconds behind.
I remember when basic physics simulations were ground breaking. 20 years later every single video game has physics. Like... once upon a time you simply COULD NOT render water. It was literally impossible. It always looked terrible.
I remember when Crysis/Far Cry hit. All anyone talked about was the fkn water lol
Thanks. I’ve been losing sleep about the future and this helped. Focus on what one can change is good advice.
it is so incredible to imagine what things in the future that I will NOT own but will somehow be happy?
Hey Joe, I really liked the question in about 12 minutes in the video: "What did people do before they were able to look up an answer to a question. And did they just accept not knowing ?". I believe there are generally 2 groups of people. Maybe 70% - who would just accept not knowing. And like 30% who would try to find the answer. So I would like to share 2 ways of doing it. My favorite way was , asking people. First I would ask my parents, than i would double-check with my teachers in school. And lastly 9 in future I would listen to people's conversations to mention somebody being an expert on a subject and I will triple-check my question with the expert. It is a very easy way to actually remember an answer - when you had 3 conversations about it. Another way was given to my by my father : to go to the library. I was never good with that, i would usually go to the fiction department of the library and get distracted. It will be fun to make a special video on more ways to solve the problem. I believe most of your viewers are in the "curious" 30%.
And as epilogue a popular joke (making fun of the new generation) : People in 19 century believed that the limited access to information was the main cause for people being stupid - 21 century proved that theory Wrong !
That sounds about right. Information was harder to come by back then but it also felt more rewarding to figure something I was wondering about.
But in a way, information can be hard today too since you easily can get the opposite information from 2 different sources so I think getting something wrong is easier now while admitting you just didn't know something was easier back then.
Then again, today you usually have someone fact checking people if you are a few discussing something (even though their fact checking also might be wrong).
Today, you really have to check the sources really carefully.
Encyclopedias 😎
Knowledge requires energy and thats why most people just opted out of knowledge seeking game. Internet has certainly lowered energy cost of for individual. Still most people just don't check and surely don't double check.
Past then, if you have born in non-english speaking part of the world, language really was major blockade to most current knowledge. And still is, but there is more translations accumulations at present.
Effort makes knowledge more personal and you are more likely to remember it (compensation for sunken cost). Fast internet has made that part too easy. Google as substitution for memory.
"Library skills" still have use at ouside of libraries. You need to tickle search engines with right words, Jump to reference lists head first and dig deep to link-trees.
One thing still is really unchanged. There is too big of fantasy department in Internet, that can suck you in (I was kid , who read almost all fantacy/scifi books from library)
People can get information when they look up from their devices and see what’s going on in front them, If they’re stuck inside maybe they can look outside. Obviously everyone sees things differently, so there may never be a consensus on what’s actually happening, and so I think it’s best to understand that nobody can know everything, but we might get a clearer picture that works for us. I’m constantly trying to filter out, useless information such as infotainment, advertorial and uninformed commentary.
Sounds like they were mostly correct. Limited access to "accurate" information was the main cause for people being "less informed"
I can’t imagine the amount of work that went into this week’s long ass video. Thank you Joe and team.
It was a bit of a beast. Thanks!
Increase your attention span my friend!!!
@@joescott you forgot to mention country dominance, I here alot of people talking about how India may become a superpower and China may collapse. The US will swing like always, and Europe will be Europe. Canada will probably legalize "medical assistance in dieing" for healthy individuals. And Mexico will ether have a civil war, or the cartels will come out of hiding and declare themselves the official governance. Although if you really want to go down a future rabbit hole, look at patents filed in the last 5 to 10 years, you won't believe what possible that's only limited by funding.
@@ZackaryJoubert increase your reading comprehension. that is not at all what the person was saying. They didnt complain about the length. They were commending Joe and Team about the time and effort that went into this 40 min video. This must have taken HOURS if not days of work.
The comparison of the mars missions to the Apollo missions where spot on. I think that is exactly whats going to happen! The only real value of investigating our own solar system and it's planets and moons, is to see if primitive lifeforms has evolved elsewhere in our solarsytem giving us a better guestimate on whether intelligent life is or has been throughout the space/time continuum. I think it's safe to say it is/was!
I think VR will definitely be used for dating, but I can also see it being used to replace youtube.
It's one thing to watch people, but to be with them on experiences (travel vlogs that take you with them for example) that would be addictive.

I walked out of a hotel in Boston a couple years ago and saw a billboard on the side of a building sponsored by Tufts that said “The first person to live to be 150, is alive today. Pretty cool.
I didn't sponsor that 🫣😅🧐😜
@@AlienAbortionAnnals If you're like most universities today that have turned into mega-business points, then you may have and just not gotten the memo.
I wouldn't count on it. Even if we could extend the average human lifespan to 150 years, that wouldn't necessarily be a good thing. Look around you. We already have younger gens bitching about the, "older people", and "boomers", keeping their jobs and not selling their houses, thereby depriving Millennials and GenZ's of housing and employment. (What do they expect GenX's and Boomers to do? Stop working and starve to death?)
I doubt it
I used to work at Tufts medical and I remember seeing that!
I appreciate the effort. Thanks Joe.

The movie Brainstorm with Natalie Wood (her last film) was about a device that could record a person's mental experiences and play them back into someones else's brain and enable them to re-live that persons experience complete with every one of their senses including vision. The still movie holds up pretty well after all these years.
Strange days
The point of that movie was, the device was actually the ultimate lie detector. That's why the govt. Wanted it.

The fact that two unrelated videos from the past week or so mentioned the whale bus indepently of each other is mindblowing to me. Just watched KnowledgeHusk's video living underwater yesterday and watching this I was like, really whale bus again!?? And I have never heard of that in my life up until this point.
Hehe, I saw that too. 😄
Joe mentioned the whale bus a couple of years ago. I think the video was about old predictions of the present day. Some article predicted there would be things like ant-men, bird-men, and Joe went through the list. Pause. "That's like half the Marvel Cinematic Universe."
everyone's asking "where is the whale bus?" but not "how is the whale bus?" 😢🐋🐳
Brilliant video. Thanks Joe!
In 1992 I was in Business Studies class and my teacher said in the future we would order our shopping online (she said on our computers) and it would be delivered to our door. In the year 1998 my work colleague said the internet will be the new CB radios where people will just go on there to talk BS. Both called it.
Back in the 1950s I looked things up in an encyclopedia. We had a World Book encyclopedia (20+ volumes) in our house. The other option was to go to the library. Newspapers and magazines were an important source of information. I was an avid reader of Popular Science and Popular Mechanics. And techno-dweebs of the day Ham Radios (shortwave) were an available but rare device that enabled two-way communications (Morse Code) to other devices anywhere around the world. As a kid I had a neighbor with a big antenna in his back yard for his Ham Radio.
Growing up in the 80s was the same with encyclopedias and libraries. Somehow we stopped caring about ham radios by then though. I guess that's because local phone calls were free by then.
A bunch of my friends are into Ham radio, it's making a bit of a comeback.
I was so glad when I didn't have to refer to card catalogs at the library anymore.
And we can already create virtual universes its called dreaming and wayyyyyy more immersive than any tech could be if you spent half the time practising your control of your own mind rather than a screen youd be amazed at what becomes possible
In 1900, the French saw the most advanced technology as a motorized skateboard. Also synchronized sound for the movies using a cylinder player. Little did they know. I learned this thru a series of postcards titled: L'ans 2000. Very interesting.
Predicting the future is like predicting the weather, you can only go so far ahead!
Great to see you recommended to me again m8
I think a video on previous "future predictions" and what they got right , what they got wrong, and REASONS why that happened, could be interesting.
I remember predictions about how the internet would develop from back in 1996/7. They completely missed the negatives and were far too optimistic about the positives - it seems to me they ignored human nature, especially what most would consider the negative aspects.
Joe, you're definitely one of my favorite TH-camrs. You've help me consider what 2100 would look like. Prior I just imagine the possible doom and gloom of the next ten years. Thinking further into the future actually gave me a sense of comfort. Thank you.
Nice!
I agree totally!
@NicolasLunaFilms turn off the news, delete the news apps, find information from non-biased sources and consider your time and feelings above the sensationalism being blasted at you.

In car navigation is so entrenched that I can't believe we actually pulled out a book of maps to find a location. But we did. The index told you what page a street was on & which xy coordinates to consult. If you wanted to plot a route you had to follow the road by flipping through to adjoining pages. Tabs on the top, bottom & left & right told you which maps were joined. Now, when I'm doing Doordash, I accept an order & Maps pops up instantly then directs me to the customer's location. Voice navigation also allows me to keep my eyes on the road, not the map.
great video - I loved all of it.. great job
Prediction: improved sporks. These will be a game changer.
When I was lost, I remember having to mess around with paper maps (I hated that) and or asking people around if lost and also going to gas stations to ask for directions. Times sure have changed. And years later, I would open my GPS only when absolutely necessary because the cost of data was insane. Now, I have over 15GB of data for cheap and use the GPS for most of my trips...
Alothough I agree with you on the "flying car" scenario, NEVER SAY NEVER! You and I may not be alive but we may get there. Keep in mind that we're carrying computers in our poskets now.
Honestly, I know this video came out a couple of weeks ago Joe, but if you really think about it... Invasive, cheap modular brain computers would be a game changer. Possibly the next not a leap but rocket launch forward in communication which would dwarf the iPhone. This with self-driving cars, autonomous humanoid robots with advanced human-like AI, re-useable spaceships and changes from modern to post-modern slightly brutalist architecture in some places just seems to be the way things are moving. This is what I think the future may look like for when it comes to drastic changes in the next 100 years. There also maybe drastic changes to life via more GMO customization, but we'll see.
Arthur C Clarke was surprisingly accurate in his predictions. He also predicted 3D printing
Clarke actually made some of the future happen. He invented the idea of synchronous orbiting satellites, which now hundreds exist.
"You are stalking elk through the damp canyon forests around the ruins of Rockefeller Center. You'll wear leather clothes that will last you the rest of your life. You'll climb the wrist-thick kudzu vines that wrap the Sears Tower."
I agree with your point at 16:33, I mean I’ve noticed hats already coming back into style recently anyway with boonie hats, bucket hats, fisherman beanies, trucker caps, etc.
We need to stay aware that any fuel we use will most likely need petroleum for oil at the least for the engines lubrication
I think the main reason that 3d printing hasn't become more universally popular is because until just *very* recently there was no printer that you could just buy and take out of the box and start using. They always required a lot of setup and calibration and tinkering. But now, spurred on by Bambu Labs, we have a bunch of printers that "just work" right out of the box. This is going to be a game changer.
Yeah this is what I was thinking. I don't watch any channels that focus specifically on printers but I do watch a few podcasts where people who do a lot of printing, if not print channels specifically, guest relatively frequently and when the hosts would ask "Well what printer should someone new to printing buy?" they just go full deer-in-headlights mode which to me says that there isn't(wasn't) any printer on the market that grandma would be able to use
@@thesoloveichiks159 What makes you not like Bambu Labs? I have just seen a few ads and have an Anycubic Photon myself because I don't like how slow and rough looking the fdm printers are.
That is what daunted me about buying one. Thanks for the info. 😅
It's the plastic waste that has stopped me personally, especially when you're just playing around or making toys and such. The second there's affordable, easily recyclable and/or biodegradable plastics I'll be on those things like butter on bread
I have always been fascinated by 3d printers. I am a very experienced 3d modeler so I could build literaly anything, but I can never think of anything I would want to print.
Heard an old interview with some old lady talking about how in the 18-19th century they really thought life would go on as it always has forever.
This is because nothing had ever really changed much in the past so they had no reference to such vast change, nor any notion that anything could be different.
Before Google maps: It was more fun and scary to explore. Usually you'd get a free tourist map or you'd memorize maps for the places you wanted to visit, maybe make some notes and follow street signs. The advent of google maps and especially street view was amazing cause you could explore the world from your couch. I honestly never really got that attached to google maps as a guide, partly because I prefer to save my battery for emergency, but also because I almost never spend time in huge cities. Memorizing a small city center is easy.
I still prefer paper maps to using Google Maps on my phone.
i set an alarm on my phone for new year’s day 2100! hope i remember to watch this video at 98 years old
11:50
We called 411 and used a hard copy of a phone book.
Phone books had local maps in them.
When I think about it, two things come to mind:
1. It's incredible how much paper was used to create the new phone books each printing.
2. It's extra incredible how often phone books stayed in their phone booths without being stolen.
- 2.5. No one would ever steal one because everyone had stacks at home. I remember having to put phone books under my bed to hold its mattress up after breaking it from jumping on it too much… 🤣
How do people boost their kids to reach the dining table without phone books?
Aka maps and personal memory
I remember phone books being used as child booster seats at dinner tables.
& with modern recycling works and low needs to cut down trees akak get more paper over time ethically instead of destroying whole forests or abusive forest damage done by Canadians, overall we could have phonebooks make comeback 7 recyling to renew for updated phone numbers, for phone, smartphone, even digital app with phone book directory, even road direction maps for vehciles@@hannakinn
also better yet my works of atom-former thus means to 3d print unlimtied paper, Digital touchscreens(like living newspaper as seen in harry potter and minority report,other then ipad news) as thin as paper & surplus paper for recycling into the resource fold & more even no need to cut down trees 100% ever again, akak scarsity free world & more!!!
I definitely relate to not remembering what we used to do before smartphones. I was driving with my cousin one time and asked, "What did we do before GPS?" even though I had already done my own road trip with MapQuest + physical road atlas book during college.
Paper maps in the car and road signs
I still don't navigate with a smartphone or GPS as much as possible. I look up what I need to know, and go. Those things completely taken away from people's situational awareness.
I rode my motorcycle from California to Texas last year, 1500 miles each way. I used a piece of tape with directions written down on my fuel tank. That was my GPS.
I will look up how to get there once, then force myself to use landmarks and my own sense of direction to get there. No turn by turn.
Except in cities where it actually doesn't make any sense how to get somewhere with 1 ways and through roads.
Physical maps and planning, always worth planning your journey incase the technology fails
I have had GPS send me down too many bad routes to trust it haha. I still use it from time to time, and it has gotten better since then. But I'm still fairly reluctant to use it and I take it's suggestions with a grain of salt haha.
11:21 i just listened up until the time stamp & we literally can do business anywhere!!
I'm literally watching & typing this in the basement of UIC Campus Chicago with my wonderful Bluetooth headphones!!!
I had this exact thought 20 years ago...so many advancements since then, imagine 20 more or MORE!!!
The hat for the hive mind thing.. yeah it's wild to imagine everyone would wanna wear a hat all the time but 100 years ago, it would've been wild to imagine everyone wearing earplugs all the time, ...and here we are everyone always listening to music or being in the phone in their airpods. Even going to sleep with them listening to a pod cast.
I have conversations all the time with people I know around the same age about how we grew up without internet, and use it now and can know the answers to everything instantly. But I know what I did back then, read things and looked things up in libraries, asked people Etc. And yes I had to wait until
I could go find the info. But yet all the time I think how lost I’d be without internet, even though I have lived before it existed in my lifetime. It’s bizarre.
You also just gave up on looking many things up and forgot about them.
I know. Growing up in the 90s, whenever we went on a holiday to a place we didn't know we had to read maps. I remember actually understanding them. Now I can't imagine not checking google maps for that
Some countries have free Universities.
Australia had them for a brief time before the politicians looked at how poorly the US system worked and thought 'we want that'
I love the clip insert from Nausicaa. XD I had started to think i was the only person who remembered it.
Much like how cell phones or social media have changed everything (but were widely overlooked by most futurists), I'm sure there is something out there right now that is going to change the world in the next 30 to 50 years that we are just not considering right now. Maybe it is virtual reality, which makes leaving your house a thing of the past for the most part... or some type of cybernetic interface finally becoming a thing where we can access everything just by thinking about it, which leads to a kind of techno-telepathy that allows us to exchange information by thoughts, so things like talking become much less common. It is really hard to say where things will go because something that is a new or relatively unknown technology now could end up being a major revolution in the future. Growing up without the internet most of my youth (we did not get dial-up internet until I was in late into high school) and without smart phones until I was out of college and had been working at my job for a few years, the impact that computers and technology have had on my life is really something crazy to think about. I never could of dreamed of things like telecommuting when I first started working for example, but now that's a regular thing.
Maybe the next big thing is duplicating yourself in chip format to be able to conquer the galaxy with nanobots.
There were ancient civilizations that were super advanced, and did not communicate using spoken word. And I understand that they seldom used any type of writing as well, and they found a few objects that were considered communicating, or story telling, & also record keeping, but for the most part, did not actually communicate verbally, however I'd like to think that there is a possibility that they used telepathy. So I agree with you that that is definitely a possibility for us in the near future, and I know that we already have that ability but the government is always going to use it first. For personal gain and for battle.
Ive actually seen a Blackhawk that flew itself without a single human onboard.
The tech exists, it was placed in our hanger for like a month while they ran tests.
Ghosts. This is fake news. Ghosts can fly aircraft, this we know for certain, so I’m afraid to say this is a disproven theory, you just saw a ghost flying a helicopter, don’t be silly.
As per usual, the military is likely to have the best tech first and us civilians won't see it for years! 😅
Love your shirt's topic themed nod to the movie A.I., Joe!
This was a lot of fun, thanks Joe. Would love to be around then if I can make it to 143 lol. Now off to check out your Celera 500L and space elevator videos, and oh rocket money too.
I think each area should have a 3d printer to create products for those in the community created from the trash that's been recycled into the raw materials to do so. Also artificial intelligence used to organize trash and determine if something is worth keeping after diagnoses to see what wrong with these things. The point is to limit waste, be more efficient and providing people with all needs and wants.
I don't think I'd consider Mary Shelley's Frankenstein to be sci-fi per se, but rather the key transition between monster fantasy and sci-fi. It's exploring traditional monster stories with a scientific angle that took inspiration from scientific experiments and exhibitions of the time (there was a scientist and crazy person who showed off how dead animals would shiver and shake when an electric current was applied to their corpse) and explored them to their, at the time, logical extreme. Nowadays we have defibrillators that actually shock people back to life, albeit somewhat anticlimactically.
Not quite "back to life", as they have yet to die by that point. The brain doesn't just shut off as soon as the nutrient flow from the heart does.
Some of my favorite cartoons growing up were the "future prediction" style cartoons. Disney did these more, I think (I could easily be wrong), but they were fantastic. Keep up the fine work, my friend. We appreciate your hard work.
Be well and take care.
I can't remember if you have looked at this before, I have a vague feeling you might have done? But an interesting book from the 1800's looking to the future is a tedious read (I found it to be interesting but tedious), it is Edward Bellamy's Looking Backward 2000-1887. It is about a man being hypnotised so deeply that they stop aging and are discovered in the year 2000 by the new owners of the house in that location when they find a basement area that he is in which they previously didn't know existed and he is curious about this world and how things are done in this world compared to the world he came from in the 1800's.
You've quickly became my favorite channel on youtube. Keep up the good work. I now look forward to every Monday!

I believe Voltaire's 1752 novella MicroMegas is an earlier sci fi novel.
I can't really recall the name but some monk back in the 1500s assumed we would have metal flying machines which would carry men and be used for warfare and wondered what it would be like.
Then there is a novel from the 1890s by a Polish guy who didn't have military experience and died before ww1 but he accurately predicted that due to the firepower of weapons and machine guns any war will quickly develop into static trench warfare. Military people scoffed at it but he was spot on.
also just to be pedantic - the s is silent on Jules Verne.
Kepler wrote a sci fi novel called Somnium in 1608. Well, it's "science" fiction, anyway.
the problem is we are taking many of the pre-industrial era innovations for granted. Dante Alighieri for example refers to the use of gunpowder in the 14th century, and gunpowder was a major technological innovation of the time. Similarly, advancements in navigation and exploration, such as the compass, played a role in inspiring maritime adventure stories and tales of exploration.
Good one Joe 👍
12:02, Yup, pretty much. I had songs in my head, like 10 or 20 of them, that I heard randomly and I didn't believe that I will be able to find them again.
Air traffic control seems exactly like the kind of job that AI would take over
Tbh, Traincontroll in Europe could already be done completely by ai. It's a system that's already mostly functioning alone, with every accident that happend in the last 10years being people making calls over the system. But systems failing shuts down everything, which is a problem. Same for air travel, pilots already do basically nothing, but if the systems fail, it's Better to have a pilot than nobody
Exactly
I think battery powered cars will be a distant memory in 2100. Currently, battery powered cars have an average life of roughly 10 years. A used car market is at best a 9 year old car. They will have to do better.
Additionally, recycling of cars and their spent batteries is still a problem.
@@gordonadams5891 U have to take into account that battery powered cars are in their early stages now, used batteries already have use cases in energy storage, but that's very niche as well. I don't know if we still use cars in 2100 or if we do, if they are powered by batteries, but it's gonna be interesting nonetheless.
Yeah but the low hanging fruit would be to digitise the protocol rather than having atc’s and pilot babbling almost indecipherable quips to each other via voice and all the attending issue and misunderstandings that brings. But this basic feature which is a logical precondition to AI controlled airspace seems no closer.
I like how that one girl from the "Happy Fun Times" interview basically just said that In the grim darkness of the far future there will be only war.
She's cute.
Loved this one.
We used to use libraries, help groups, churches, newspapers, made phone calls... one of the best examples is the " life line " in TV game shows... basically call the smartest person you know. Some books that people read included cookbooks, dictionaries, encyclopedia sets, and magazines
Joestradamus could easily crank out a 10 minutes "Predictavision" episode a couple of times a year, perhaps around new years. I'd watch that.
Hi Joe, always interesting to try to project current developments into the future. Apparently you did not come across quite an elaborate prediction of life in the year 2000, written in 1887 by Edward Bellamy. The novella is titled Looking Backward 2000-1887. It's about a man from the year 1887 waking up in the year 2000. Bellamy somewhat correctly predicted a number of technological developments (such as being able to listen to concerts from a distance), but especially his predictions about social life, work and economy are a source of inspiration to this day.
Wikipedia has an interesting article about the book. You can find Bellamy's novella in pdf or in digital format for free all over the internet.
Yes, I agree that Bellamy would have been the best place to start understanding our future. This idea that present day technologies will proceed linearly far into the future is on shaky ground based on what has happened previously.
Thank you for leaving this reference. This is what comments are supposed to be about, not 2000 twenty-somethings banging out the first thing that pops into their empty heads.
@@AndriasTravels Ironically both your, and my, comments add no value and promotes bloat...
@@axa.axa.
Not all, but almost no comments have value, other than to data mining and collection entities, akin to Millennial participation trophies, or seeing your name in lights.
He did mention he was looking for sources before 1850.
I look back and think the whole trajectory of my life would be different if there was an internet when I was growing up. The knowledge available today is staggering.
But maybe all the novelty would distract you from your purpose
as an Australian having been to many countries I see hsr and mass public transport as more freedom than cars, yeah they get you around and can go on all roads but with hsr you have the ability to go places without being burdened by taxes, insurance, getting your liscence renewed, plus you don't need to focus on the task of driving freeing you to read, do work, sleep ect... Even order food. Yeah it only really becomes like that when it is built out to sufficient scale but even small dense public transport systems can be much more freeing than driving. Especially when you think about traffic and finding a carpark and the costs associated with parking. I recently got a electric scooter which i can take on the bus and i must say it takes less time to ride home from university, than it does to walk to my car in the city. I really hope that in the future we have much more public transport and walking options, even if car usage is still relatively high.
