JUST AN ASSUMPTION
The world is revolving at a very fast pace, and even though I hate to admit it, My generation is getting old and a lot of us might be grandparents by the year 2050. Although the unique thing is that my generation would have seen three levels of revolution which occurred in the late 90s, early 2000’s and then the future which we can only speculate based on how things are moving currently. Already we see Billionaires like Elon Musk investing heavily in the Mars project, and Tesla building Automated cars, we are also seeing Visual reality coming to play and AI at the beginner level.

Despite all the amazing inventions we are hearing of today, I’m quite certain that by 2050 all these amazing technologies blowing our minds away will be a thing of the past. Opps I forgot, Our present reality itself would be past tense by that time. And it is with this knowledge I can assume that the world would have been so automated that the things that blow our minds today would be old for even the average man. I remember in the early 2000’s when touch screen phones were a big deal, now every phone is expected to be a touch screen for the less than average man.
I think Button phones will be a big deal to the future generation. I say this predicting its extinction by 2050. I can also predict crypto to be a major, major, system of payment as almost everything would have become automated. The world would have seen the result of this MARS project that Elon Musk is so passionate about, and if it is successful, You will start hearing people dreaming of traveling outer space rather than traveling overseas. I can imagine companies whose pride, dreams and achievements will be in having branches all over the galaxies (that would be existing by then). Because I’m certain if it proves very successful, Humans and nations will seek to conquer other planets…
The world could even record a war of galaxies which would surpass World war 1 and 2. Then talk about Visual Reality being a norm. I mean we get to see movies as though we were in the movie, The Entertainment industry would be at its new peak, and we will be enjoying all its automations. AI would be technically everywhere, and by everywhere I mean even in the paramilitary system, A lot of things would have become easier, but overall I’m certain mankind would have evolved in such a way that we would have seen the end to everything we fear currently. Remember when airplanes were a thing, and a lot of religious people believed it was a sign demons have taken over the world and if God wanted man to fly He would have given man wings, well now we can see how evolved humanity has become and I can say that would definitely be the case.
That on button phones is a fact that cannot be disputed. Even children of these days don't want to see such phones, they all want to be in the league of people using smartphones like iPhones and the smart-Samsung products.
I foresee that there will be more problems in the year 2050 and beyond because everybody nation and their researchers would have a point to prove.
I also predict the use of crypto being the major means of payment in the future. This is one major advancement I'm looking forward to, and then robots taking over humans in different fields is also another thing.
