Modern technology is astounding and improving daily. We double our technological ability every ten years. Imagine what our current technology will look like in ten years.
Cell phones will be a thing of the past, as will tablets, PC’s and almost every piece of technology we find to be “Cutting Edge” today. The new and most important technological break through is already in the pipeline, it’s human beings. We are on the threshold of a monumental change in the evolution of the human race. We are so very close to being obsolete as solely biological entities.
Right now we have the technology to replace parts of the human brain with computers that essentially act as part of the system to maintain biological functions of the human body such as breathing, nervous system functions, and more. Imagine how this will ultimately change us. Most experts agree that at our current technological pace, by 2030 we will have computers that eclipse the ability of the human brain for $1000.00 and by 2040 we will be able to acquire that same level of technology for $1.00.
This only leads to one place. The obsolescence of the human race as we know it. No more will humans be subject to the degradation of time and wear on our bodies. We will have nano technology that will enable nano-bots to be injected into our bodies and allow them to maintain the health of our bodies by seeking out errant cells and other maladies and fix them on a cellular level. Imagine micro bots that maintain the texture and virility of your skin at the age of 18 FOREVER. Gone would be the days of face lifts, organ transplants, death. They will all be relics of what will be considered an a barbaric age when we actually harvested other humans for our own benefit.
By 2050 we will take the final step into obsolescence. The human brain will be able to be completely mapped in a short amount of time. Every neuron, every cell, every connection, every part. leading to the ability to store that information in a digital format and the ability to be immortal. At this point quantum computers will enable robots to reproduce themselves and evolve better and better designs through constant design changes. We will e able to download ourselves into a machine, a perfect machine that is able to repair itself and continually evolve and improve to meet new conditions. Able to see in complete darkness. Able to detect every element by sight. Able to communicate with any other member of the human species instantly. Able to act without fear of harm to oneself.
It is then that we will truly become a universal species. Able to travel distances that as a biological form would be impossible. Able to walk on planets regardless of the atmosphere. Able to explore even the most distant star systems. Able to exist forever.
