THE FUTURE!
So I found this info-graphic on how technology is going to progress in the next 30 years or so and I am pretty happy with what it predicts. The future is going to be awesome but it is going to turn everything upside down.
The playing field will become level, it will be impossible for anybody to have any advantage over another. Let me explain, as construction gets more advanced things will be easier to build. Eventually someday we should be able to convert plentiful molecules and maybe even elements into the more useful ones. So the annoying greenhouse gases and the garbage we produce will be converted literally into gold.
This makes everything physical easy to make, all that you need is the blueprint to ‘print’ the awesome product you want and energy to do so (Because your garbage can be used as the construction material). Now as the info graphic shows things like the Enernet which will make energy easy to get a hold of, if photovoltaic glass and paint exists then theoretically every artificial construction could produce electricity. Then if you need energy to do something (Build anything) you can just borrow it from your neighbours who may be creating a surplus.
Also if online piracy has proved to everyone how hard it is to ‘protect’ information, the blueprints of anything worthwhile will be available on the internet.
So any material can be used to make anything, energy will be plentiful to utilise these materials, and you will probably be able to download blueprints (Of say an awesome car) for free off the internet.
The future is awesome!
