FX.co ★ Mind-blowing tech predictions until 2099

2019: Wire and cables for personal devices and peripherals will be the thing of the past.

2020: Computing power of PCs will be equal to the human brain.

2021: Wireless internet will be accessible at 85% of the territory of the Earth.

2022: The US and Europe will approve the laws regulating rights and obligations of robots and relations between them and people.

2024: People will not be allowed to drive their cars without computer intelligence.

2025: The mass market of gadgets-implants will appear.

2026: The scientific progress will increase life expectancy.

2027: A personal robot capable of fully autonomous complex actions will come into use in the same way as a coffee machine or a fridge.

2028: Total energy needs of humanity will be satisfied because of cheap and common solar power.

2029: A computer will pass the Turing test, proving the presence of reason. This will bring closer the possibility of implementing the computer model of the human brain.

2030: Nanotechnology in industry will flourish, resulting in lower costs for production of all goods.

2031: 3D printers will be available in all hospitals to print human organs.

2032: Nanorobots will be used for medical purposes. They will be able to deliver nutrients to the cells and remove waste products. They will also conduct detailed scans of the human brain, making it possible to understand how it functions.

2033: Only self-governing cars will be on the roads.

2034: A man with artificial intelligence will be created.

2035: Space technology will be sufficiently developed to ensure full protection of the Earth from collision with asteroids.

2036: Using progress in biology, it will be possible to program cells for the treatment of diseases, while the use of 3D printers will grow new tissues and organs.

2037: A giant breakthrough in understanding the secrets of human brain will allow people to determine hundreds of its different subregions with specialized functions. Some of the algorithms that encode the development of these regions will be transcribed and included in the neural network of computers.

2038: Robotic people will appear. They will be the result of transhumanist technologies and have many implants, for example, a camera in the eye.

2039: Nano-machines will be implanted directly in the brain and will be able to exchange signals with its cells. This will lead to virtual reality and total immersion without additional equipment.

2040: Gadgets with search engines will be implanted in the human body. The search will be done with the help of language and thoughts, with the result being displayed on the screen of lenses or glasses.

2041: Internet bandwidth will be 500 million times more than today.

2042: People will be able to become immortal thanks to nanorobots that will supplement the immune system and "clean up" the diseases.

2043: People will be able to change the shape of their body due to the replacement of internal organs with cybernetic devices.

2044: Non-biological intelligence will be billions of times smarter than the biological one.

2045: The Earth will turn into one big computer. This will be the onset of the technological singularity.

2099: The technological singularity will extend to the entire universe.
