artificial intelligence judge sentences a criminal to jail [Music] people are now working in completely virtual workspaces digital fabrics evolve into power assist fabrics helping humans walk and gain back mobility in old age they also give humans added strength and show users how to learn new physical skills smart tattoos are used with embedded personalized circuits that allow people to control the devices around them 4d printing is being used to create new smart materials materials that are able to transform their structures in response to their environment such as when exposed to heat or light people are now
living with 3d bio-printed artificial organs swarm robotics start to make their way into everyday life fleets of robots such as small drones or robotic ants communicate with each other and work together they are able to lift construction materials and become structures themselves by organizing to form a bridge everyday people are living with ia brain chips for intelligence amplification allowing their thinking memories and problem solving to be helped with the use of a machine subdermal tech is overtaken by neural links i am not a human verification systems are in place to keep humans out permanent luna
settlements humans are living on the moon in science research stations and transit hub facilities acting as a link between earth and mars and the outer solar system a space station constructed in orbit around the moon begins operations billions of people around the world tune in to watch the bionic olympics where humans with robotic limbs compete people are wearing self-cleaning fabrics that are woven with micro metals which break down dirt when exposed to sunlight [Music] the starshot alpha centauri program founded by yuri milner stephen hawking and mark zuckerberg launches a thousand tiny spacecrafts that are equipped
with light sails and are powered by lasers on earth get sent into space they reach 20 percent of the speed of light the tiny spacecrafts are on a mission to fly by and gather data from proxima centauri b an exoplanet that is in a human habitable zone of the star system [Music] the square kilometer array goes online dishes across the deserts of south africa and australia are 50 times more sensitive than the hubble space telescope and are able to pick up faint radio signals from any potential extraterrestrial civilization 4d printing of moon habitats begin materials
absorb solar radiation and micro meteor impacts converting solar and impact energy into electrical energy moon-based construction of spacecrafts began to be used in the further exploration of the solar system quantum computing based chemical engineering creates a genetically altered strain of wheat designed to survive in the extreme cold and thin co2 atmosphere of the martian environment and neural brain chips allow people to talk to each other telepathically humans record every event of their lives from birth to death inner speech recording is possible hackers are able to plant artificial memories humans have sensors flowing through their bloodstream
monitoring their health in robotics police robot units accompany human police officers for patrols the robot population surpasses the human population extinct animals are brought back to life the first woolly mammoth is grown from dna found in the preserved soft tissues of the long dead beasts herds of mammoths and woolly rhinoceroses roam in a zoo of living fossils asteroid capture operations begin robots guided by artificial intelligence capture asteroids from the asteroid belt and maneuver them into the orbits of the moon and mars the raw materials are delivered to mars and the moon to be converted into
materials for further off-world habitat construction and space exploration crafts stem cells regenerate missing body parts including teeth and limbs genetic engineering adapts human bodies for the rigors of spaceflight reducing muscle and bone mass loss from prolonged periods of weightlessness 300 000 people live on mars newborns on earth inherit the data trails of their parents park reactors are now efficient and compact they are used as a portable power source and are employed for military and exploration purposes [Music] people are able to rent and stream dreams while they sleep and dream together in the same virtual world
artificial general intelligence emerges from a super quantum computer a human designed computer achieves consciousness it is able to learn new things and is self-aware [Music] inter-species communication is now possible robots begin to hold funerals for one another [Music] artificial life forms are born quantum computers are able to design biological life forms from scratch from redesigning bacteria that can consume plastics to creating designer humans the average lifespan of someone born today will be 5 000 years and ai has the status of a corporation a global artificial intelligence manages a global hyperloop transit system removing the need
for commercial flights all hyperloop vehicles are built with self-repairing smart materials basic molecular assemblers are in use letting humans create any type of food with the push of a button humanity is well settled all around the solar system and is exploring the outer system robotic transit fleets transport materials across the solar system nasa's alcubierre warp drive goes live in the vacuum of space nothing can move faster than the speed of light but negative energy is used to warp space-time the space behind the spaceship expands and the space in front contracts causing a warp bubble bending
space-time around the spaceship and breaking the speed of light mars declares independence from earth humanity is declared a type 1 civilization they know how and need to use and store all of the available energy on their planet the type 1 civilization controls the weather the sea currents the volcanoes the earthquakes and has terraforming technologies dyson structures are built in orbit to capture the energy from the sun generation ships built from super lightweight and self-repairing materials are accelerated to sub-light speeds journeys to nearby star systems take place colonization of worlds around distant stars begins orbital cycles
of earth create a new glacial ice age environmental engineering is employed to warm the planet and reduce glacier growth humans develop new colonies add new star systems and immediately begin asteroid mining and the construction of the dyson structures to capture energy dyson structures now surround the sun and distant stars humanities achieve type 2 status the beginnings of the galactic civilization as a type 2 civilization they are able to use and control the energy of its planetary system and can prevent the death of its own star by injecting fuel into it humankind's consciousness is downloaded into
a quantum computer core the matriasca brain a supercomputer using multiple dyson spheres drives a simulation for humanity humanity is transferred into a simulation to live and travel much further in the galaxy swarms of tiny lightweight robots enter distant star systems and begin construction of various facilities before the arrival of humanity human consciousness is transmitted as data to the new star system where robot bodies are waiting to accept the human consciousness robotic bodies are exchanged for biological ones designed and grown to be suitable for local planetary environments humanity is on course to become a type 3
galactic scale civilization needing to use all of the energy available in its galaxy with technology so advanced that space-time is their playground at this point humanity meets another civilization of pure numerical spirits that have been waiting in a colder space outside of the universe
