So how true will this be?

So how true will this be?

(Checked)
What are you asking for, someone to tell you about the future? The early years from 2012 - 2016 seem to more or less fit.
I cannot see Space tourism to become anything more than "travel to ISS, see that earth indeed is round!!!"
Procedural storytelling seems a bit vague to me, as well as how exactly it impacts us outside of entertainment.
Very generally speaking, some things like Weather engineering, domestic robots, interplanetary internet etc. will probably just fade in very slowly and I would give more conservative estimates for when we are really there that they become that viral.
Then again, I am not optimistic enough to believe that no war or structural crisis will put a dent into progress.

We already have solar sails so I'm not sure what you're getting at.

>interplanetary internet 10 years before Mars mission

>200 TB for $150
>standard RAM 750 GB
>2020

lol thats fucking bullshit

shit diagram

>no quantum computing
>graphene is next year (lol)
>virtual currencies don't already exist
>no mind-computer interface

Over 18 trillion stories!

Wow!

>750 GB RAM
>2020 game's Recommended Memory: 800 GB
just can't win

>I am not optimistic enough to believe that no war or structural crisis will put a dent into progress
seriously? war is how large-scale progress is made. the space race wouldn't have happened had it not been for the cold war

>optical invisibility cloaks

Is there some non-mil market for this that I cant see or this graphic made by an autistic kid who wants hoverboots?

>all of these meme fields and buzzwords
God I wish all the "trend science" faggots contributing jack shit would just drop dead.

Read that chart in Sam Hyde's voice and imagine him saying 2020 after every other buzzword.

Much of that list is garbage since what they expect to come is in many cases already here:
- augmented reality, haptics and telepresence - must be decades
- NFC, smart power meters and machine vision has been here for ages. The smart powr meter I have can be set to remotely turn off my water heater to avoid overload., have had this for more than 5 years.
- smart toys? Like tamagochi? 20 years ago. Robotic surgery is already in clinical test stages and have had great success.
- stem cell treatment, after 2020??

The list is highly refined garbage.

Bio chem major / materials chemistry grad student.

The biotech predictions are pretty on point.

The next big thing in energy and materials will be solid state batteries and multivalent ion. We get closer literally everyday. If I told you a Mg-S battery exists, can function, but has the problem of not functioning long enough to be feasible, would you believe me? Li-S batteries already have some commercial applications believe it or not.

Eeng with nanoengineering specialisation. Most of the /materials/ branch is already here, but we don't know what to use it for because by and large, noones gives a shit about hardware anymore.

>2016
>natural language interpretation

yeahhh nope. 5/10 years away, unless you mean chatbots.

Also the whole geoengineering thing seems off, but I'm not knowledgeable enough to tell.

graphene next year is ok, there's an insane amount of people working on it.

I agree on the lack quantum computers.

mind computer interfaces will be after 2040 to be safe/effective. You need to get inside the skull.

Graphene has been "just one year" away since 2010.

not on that graph.

>Li-S batteries already have some commercial applications believe it or not.
Considering the explosive powers then yes, that is hard to believe.

How do I become an optimist like the person who made that graph Veeky Forums?

The only ones that matter but aren't on the list:

Cell Based Therapies by 2030
Chimera Organ Farms by 2025
Commercial fusion by 2050
Quantum computing by 2060
Widespread graphene/nanocrystal use by 2040

Also when commercial fusion and quantum computing hits I think our tech development rate will skyrocket. We may be able to do stuff we can't even imagine by 2070. Just like people in the 1800s could not have possibly thought of many of the technologies we have today.

>Commercial fusion by 2050
>Quantum computing by 2060

Quantum computing is 5 years away at worst. Commercial fusion is 30 years away at best.

Sub orbital flights after 2018? Strange, GOCE was sub orbital and needed continuous thrust since 2009 and plunged into the atmosphere in 2013.

It was aerodynamically shaped because of this.

>Eyewear embedded screens
>2019
has the science made time fast?

I believe the first commercial Li-S Barrett was used in a satellite of some sort very very recently. Like 2014 or 2015

> programmable matter

ITS A REAL ABSTRACT KIND OF MATTER
