Change always happens. By every waking day, there is a new invention, and advancement in terms of technology takes an upwards shoot.
2050 is a long, yet a short time from now. About 26 years. And just as was five, ten, fifteen, even twenty years back, by far so much would have changed, be it in music, technology, education, form of art expression, trend, in Healthcare, and almost in every(if not all) areas of human living.
The world would have greatly evolved, and maybe the present technology realities, which are seen as luxury and ultimate presently, would have become outdated. I am not even implying that everything we have and use now would no longer be in use then or would have gone extinct(they may, though),, all I am saying is that there would be better alternatives for them.
Take smartphones and laptops as an instance. Some twenty years ago, they weren't in use. Or maybe, mire appropriately put, they weren't so rampart and very few persons owned then. Land phones and desktops were the rave, but look how far we've come. These inventions have made them take a backseat. And even with what we currently have, there are upgrades and updates, so much that year-in, something unimagined pops up.
By that year, i believe that in areas such as security and healthcare, they'd be more computerized approach to the machines, detectors, and armouries in use.
And in power supply too. These days, solar energy is becoming more and more in use. There are more solar and rechargeable bulbs now. People are already beginning to own solar panels and inverters, although they cost quite an amount. So, from now until that year, 2050, I believe it would not be uncommon to find that people no longer own either have use for generator sets, since solar panels would be more affordable. Besides, with the intensity that we get from the sun in this region, I would find it surprising that we wouldn't have a twenty-four hours all year round electricity supply.
Also, I see a future where we have less and less need for petroleum products to run our machines. Artificial intelligence and robotics would have become well involved in everyday living, taking charge in many routine processes, not forgetting the aspect of education and agriculture.
In the area of evolution of people and mindset, so much would have changed. I want to hope that the rate of moral decadence wouldn't be so bad, considering how things are presently. But I believe that people might be more embracing of other persons and their beliefs and cultures. There would be more awareness of self and society, far more expectations, and more speaking-up. The social media world might be a mess considering how much uncoordinated and misused it is at present. Generally, so much of what is being fought for or against would have become welcome practices. By then, we may have developed by lemgths to an even better enlightened society.
I hope this was an interesting read. Thank you for stopping by.
