Can humans exist only until 2100?

The development of science can make humans now disappear in less than 100 years.

The fact that people may disappear in the future has been soon warned by scientists. The cause was pointed out by war, climate change, poverty .

However, according to Seth Shostak - director of the Institute looking for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (Seti) - humans will soon no longer exist, but instead a completely different species.

It is the result of artificial intelligence technology , the same solution that allows us to create "designer babies".

Finally, we will create a completely different generation, like the previous wolf and dog species.

Shostak makes predictions based on the current development speed of science. First, he believed that we would soon solve the biological mysteries at the molecular level. Since then, humans have been able to completely eliminate the disease-causing gene, while selecting good genes for the new generation. The result - completely different children will be born.

He also believes that in the future, when resources on Earth are exhausted, humanity will seek other resources in the universe. The fact that people go out into space is also a solution to the population explosion, but on the other hand helps us evolve to adapt.

But that is not all. Shostak predicts that by 2100, we will successfully develop a new generation artificial intelligence, allowing machines to do a lot of human work. And even, we can absorb knowledge in seconds just by downloading data from machines to the brain like in fiction films.

That is , basically, human beings like us now only exist for a few dozen years , and then will have to make way for a whole new generation, like the way our ancestors evolved tens of thousands. last year.
