In the future, the real freedom is where there's privacy.
So, in the middle of the forest? lol
@@libertas-goddessofliberty5664 Where I live in North Carolina... Yes!
This sounds like the worst possible nightmare a person can imagine, Computers monitoring you 24/7 sharing your data and privacy.
This is so not the right direction society should be moving to, smart cities are about:
Light sensors, Energy gathering, using empty spaces in the city for work/sleep when needed, changing the pavements and roads according to the rush hour, shades and moving photovoltaic cells,
the good things.
not selling my privacy and habits to be governed.
BBC ideas works are unfailingly both informative and compact !
Yeah maybe for a re-education camp
Welcome to the city of the future. A smart city that knows everything about you. From how you like your coffee, to whether you've broken the law. Or even if you've grown a beard. Sound far-fetched? While the smart city we're about to tour doesn't exist yet, all of the parts do. They're all components of real projects happening all over the world. Put them together and this is what life may well be like in the not-too-distant future. You go to work, your office building knows exactly who's coming and going and what they need, thanks to thousands of inbuilt sensors collecting data. The energy-efficient building is designed for your comfort, reacting to changes in the weather and the number of people in the building and adjusting its climate accordingly. Wherever you sit, the lighting will adjust to suit your preferences. The building will even recall your regular coffee order and there's no chance of it getting your name wrong. On your way home, you pass lamp posts laden with sensors and HD cameras that monitor and record the world around them 24/7. Air quality and traffic flow data tell you the quickest and cleanest route and alert emergency services to accidents. You arrive home, to a nutritious meal made from locally grown avocados using hydroponics, so no need for soil. Sensors allow urban farmers to make constant adjustments to temperature, light, and water and monitor the plant's responses, so it's easier and cheaper to grow fresh food in cities. The level of control smart technology gives can also be used to make food tastier. In Singapore, they've already found a way to make kale sweeter and softer, so even the fussiest of eaters will enjoy their greens. Your health is flourishing, thanks to your perfectly balanced diet but you also regularly update your doctors using data sent directly from your smartwatch. They analyze it and prescribe personalized drugs and supplements that are quickly 3D printed just for you. Your baby stirs and you're alerted by its smart blanket. Reassured that all is well, child mortality rates are at an all-time low, you go to bed but the sensors in the street never sleep. They're busy policing antisocial behavior, identifying people smoking in unauthorized zones, or throwing rubbish from high-rise buildings - crime rates are negligible. While much of this might sound pretty idyllic, it is not without issues. Smart cities go hand-in-hand with gathering and storing huge amounts of personal data and using it to control city life. For governments keen to control certain populations, this is an incredibly powerful tool. Every moment of your daily routine can be tracked, anyone with access to this data can find out where you live, where you go every day, the places you visit at night, and who you're with. This data can be used by people with far more nefarious aims than making you the perfect soya latte. You could leave your phone at home, with an advanced facial recognition CCTV in the mix, authorities can easily keep tabs on you. In places like Xinjiang in China, where growing a beard can already get you reported, this is a frightening prospect. So are the benefits of a smart city worth giving up privacy and freedom for? Can governments and corporations be trusted with such huge data sets on all of us? What happens if there's a mistake in the system or you want to overthrow the system itself? Whether you think smart technology means we're sleepwalking into a dystopian future or enabling us to live a vastly more convenient and sustainable lifestyle, it's coming soon to a city near you.
Totalitarian bullshit must be resisted
Can you reduce the level of music 😅
It's noisy
No..not so much noisy
Control control control!
Great video! Thanks for making it available!
who would like such future? There is no freedom and watched 24/7...this is scary. An embarrassing attempt to control all that happens.
If you buy a modern car motorcycle or scooter, it will be "Chipped" and send signals to your dealer and goodness knows where.
They will know your mileage, and where you´ve been, and also have control of various warning lights to encourage further visits to sort it out.
This is accomplished via the Bluetooth device, which can sometimes be wrapped in tinfoil to isolate it.
This sounds like 1984..... Too scary
“A Brave New Wold” is more like it
Reminds me of this super-smart predictive algorithmic computer from WESTWORLD Season 3, whic can predict every possibility and know everything about everyone.
Very interesting and informative video. I look forward to the times when my native Kyiv (or another city? no one but God knows in which city I will live at that time; in short, the city in which I will live at that time) will become such a smart- networks and all that you talked about in this video will become my everyday life.
Do you know the track ? Please 🙌
Look up your city & smart city in your state to see if their is a smart city coming to you! There’s multiple cities under way with implementing these.
Not to be cliché but Big Brother seems to be watching
I thought I was watching at 1.25 speed
These ideas sound far- fetched. I believe that in the not far distant future, we may experience some of these things.
Wouldn't it be monotonous!
better to live in the Tibet rathe than living like robots
thats scary to me, no secret any more...all the data will be uploaded and shared.
Minority report
It’s intriguing
this vid was amazing
It may say "BBC", but sounds more like "The Sun"
1984
All feels good, until we wake up from the Matrix to the reality of bare ground !
Nice, but utopic
Save energy to stop climate change, this is madness. Because you can make cheap clean and large amount of energy with easy methods.🍉🤔
Climate change is the biggest fraud ever comitted against us by the psychopathic 1%
geil
Great, a cyberpunk dystopia with none of the cool aesthetic
To far fetched ideas
