8 unexpected predictions about the people of the
Listen to the predictions of Ray Kurzweil, a famous future research scientist, about human life in the coming years.
Future predictions about science and human life
Ray Kurzweil is a famous scientist in the field of future research and author of many famous books such as "The Age of Spiritual Machines" and "How to Create a Mind".
His influence was so great that Google invited him back to lead research on artificial intelligence.
In addition, he is known as a person who regularly makes predictions about the future, with an accuracy of up to 86%.
And below, are his predictions about human life after 2020.
By 2030, "" will connect the human brain to the internet
According to Kurzweil earlier this year, in the future, "viral robots" will give us "complete virtual reality experience from within the nervous system". In other words, our brain will be able to connect to the "cloud system".
"This is similar to the fact that we increase the storage capacity by tens of thousands of times thanks to the use of current cloud computing, people in the future can fully expand their brains through the internet. ".
And if so, we will be able to live in a virtual world - just like in the "Matrix" movie.
Micro robot system will also help prolong life much more
Thanks to the science, people will live longer.
According to Kurzweil, viral robots in the human body will help us "perfect" the immune system. Thus, people will treat all kinds of diseases - including cancer.
This leads to a prospect that future researchers call "a radical extension of life" - where death is just a completely treatable disease.
People will become much more fun
At the same time make us more funny.
Kurzweil believes that human mechanization does not make us lose more "humanity" , but even vice versa. Viruses not only make people smarter, but also increase our emotional intelligence.
"We will be able to create deeper emotional expressions, thanks to a huge treasure of knowledge from cloud technology," Kurzweil said.
You will no longer have to spend a lot of time thinking up clever words, happy stories, because the speed of human thinking at this point will be greatly accelerated.
will print everything
The future "needs nothing" will not be far away.
As 3D printing technology grows and expands, a lot of things around us will become electronic information. And according to Kurzweil, by 2020, people will have "extremely wealthy lives and print whatever they need".
In fact, houses, or bridges, have been built thanks to more 3D printing technology in recent times.
We can "revive" those who have died through AI
In the future, death is not over.
Kurzweil once emphasized many times that he would "revive " his father - Mr. Frederick Kurzweil - through the support of artificial intelligence.
According to him, by 2030, we will be able to send virus robots to our brains to collect memories of those who have passed away. Combined with DNA patterns, humans can create a "virtual self" of people who have died, with extreme precision.
And then there will come a time called "Singularity"
Something like the future will look like this.
The most important moment for humanity, according to Kurzweil, is 2045.
That was the time when future researchers called "Singularity" , when the pace of evolution of biological evolution was overcome by artificial intelligence.
". is the future time that the speed of technology development is so fast that it will make people's lives change completely. At that time, all the familiar concepts of life will be changed. completely, from economic models to human life cycles, and even death ".
Kurzweil said that by 2045, the computing power of artificial intelligence would be billions of times more than human intelligence.
And our life will never be the same.
After the "Singularity" moment, we can upload the brain to the internet
The brain will no longer be confined to the body.
Kurzweil as well as future researchers think that this is the inevitable consequence of Singularity. Accordingly, you can transform your consciousness, from relying on the brain, to rely on computers.
Even Stephen Hawking believed that this could happen.
"I think the brain is just a program in the cognitive system, like a computer, so it is theoretically possible to copy your brain into a computer and create a life form later. Of course, for modern science this is still out of reach , " Kurzweil said.
But this may not be right after 2045.
Along with that, we will also have "virtual bodies" to use
People will customize the body like in the game.
When human consciousness can be uploaded on the network, and virtual reality systems become more complete, of course we will also have virtual bodies to use in this environment.
"Human virtual bodies will be as detailed as our bodies. In a virtual reality environment, we need a body to use, and our intellect will be linked to that body. " - Kurzweil said.
And we can also do body customization in a virtual reality environment that is best suited - this is similar to customizing characters in video games.
The basis for Kurzweil's predictions
According to Kurzweil, his predictions were completely unfounded.
"My core argument is" Law of Accelerating returns, "that information technology solutions will grow in a predictive and exponential way, in stark contrast to the 'complete human perspective'. Kurzweil could not predict the future that "we often meet" , Kurzweil wrote in 2010.
For him, whether a company can dominate the market or not, or whether the war in the Middle East region has ever ended is unpredictable, but how technology can grow. "completely foresee" - and this is also the basis for him to make predictions about the future.
