Intro
Technology in the future is looking to be very very different from what it is today. People are already predicting what the future will look like in the next fifty to one hundred years. We will be seeing things that a lot of people wouldn't even have thought was possible. Obviously in the past future predictions haven't been very accurate but the ones being made today are being done by scientists who are already working on the technology. Some things we are sure of and some things there is only a small chance of happening, there is even very futuristic technology that we already have that just needs to be injected into society. In the near future we could be expecting anything from owning your own space rocket and having a holiday home on Mars (unlikely) to being able to access google using our brains (possible). The only thing we can be sure of is that there will be change and that technology is a tool that could save all of humanity and give the human race a chance to live another billion years, or it could (in a lot of different ways) destroy us and our planet as soon as the next century. So we need people that are developing our society based technology to be smart about and not make any mistakes. Since 2000 our planet has developed hugely in terms of technology, with inventions like the smartphone, artificial intelligence and the electric car.
All these inventions changed and are still changing how we live today and there is still a lot more tech to come. With technology being developed faster than ever before we will see tech that ten years ago people would have never even dreamed of having.
Transport
One of the things people are already talking about is flying cars. Certain billionaires and people that are producing technology and essentially shaping the future are saying this isn't a very good or realistic idea, one because they will produce a lot of wind and also because they will be hard to traffic and will just clog up the skies. The alternative says Elon Musk is underground tunnels, not the big ones with multiple lanes and enough room to provide for crashes. They want to build small one car tunnels that self drive underground, so you could just drive up to the entrance of a tunnel and it would be automatically hooked onto the roof and taken through. The deepest holes are bigger than the tallest buildings so we can expect to have underground car network systems up to fifty tunnels deep. A company called the boring company has already started to build similar tunnels.
On the topic of transport the most anticipated thing would be hyperloop train tunnels which Elon Musk with Tesla are already working on. Hyperloops ( when fully developed ) can go 670 miles per hour (1080 kpm) which is 15 times faster than the top speed of traditional trains and is up to 3 times faster than magnetic levitation trains.
Once these have been developed someone could order cargo from one side of the country and it would get there in roughly a couple of hours.
Will technology destroy the world?
Technology can do a lot of things.
Think of it, it tells you where you can go shopping, it helps you get to where you want to go shopping and it even helps you pay for what you get from the supermarket.
Technology is a tool that can help us but also hinder us or harm us. Some think that AI will run over the world while others might think that we will be able to beam ourselves faster than the speed of light.
Robots are in our lives. They are around us and all over the world. Right now they carry out many tasks that people don't want to do because such jobs are boring, dirty or dangerous. They can also be programmed to carry out some tasks that are too complex for humans. The new surge of robotics is in applications demanding advanced intelligence. Robotic technology is converging with a wide variety of complementary technologies – machine vision, force sensing (touch), speech recognition and advanced mechanics.Humanoid robots, while being one of the smallest groups of service robots in the current market, have the greatest potential to become the industrial tool of the future.
Artificial intelligence (AI)
Did you know that if humans go extinct there is a 1 in 25 chance of it being from Ai taking over and there is only one other thing more likely which is just global warming and having no more natural resources on earth to use.
But don't worry, just because Elon Musk says it’s the greatest threat to humanity and also the most likely it doesn't mean we have to panic or anything. Elon Musk is also putting certain measures in place to prevent this scenario, an option is to just live on mars but there is no saying if they will follow us.
If one day the earth is unlivable ,can we save humanity by going to mars?
Living on mars
First we have to find out if we can go to mars? On mars there is a lot of gas. It is impossible to breathe this gas. It is poisonous and only a small percentage of oxygen in it. Another problem is that there is a strong radiation in space that doesn’t affect us on earth because of its protective atmosphere . The I.S.S. (International Space
Station) is just on the inside of the atmosphere and Astronauts all ready receive ten times more radiation than on earth. Now imagine being on Mars which has a thinner atmosphere made 95% of carbon dioxide. The thinner atmosphere leets through harmful radiation. It can cause nausea, vomiting, anorexia, fatigue, cataracts, cardiac disease and circulatory disease. Therefore we would have to build radiation proof shelters. We would have to instal air cleaners that turn co2 into breathable oxygen.
Another thing we need to survive is water, which luckily is available on Mars due to the ice that is located at the surface at the north polar ice cap. Abundant water ice is also present beneath the permanent carbon dioxide ice cap at the Martian south pole and in the shallow subsurface at more temperate conditions. Food would have to be grown in gardens. Under the right conditions plants could grow on mars. It would be tough but sweet potatoes, carrots, onions, kale, dandelions, basil, garlic, hops and crops that are particularly robust can survive under Martian conditions.
Transportation
How do we get to mars?
The first thing that comes to mind is rockets. But are they the best transport option?
There are a few ideas like launching a large number of conventional rockets from Earth with destination Mars.
Or a few big vessels are assembled in Earth's orbit and then started towards Mars. This requires a large number of shuttle starts from Earth's surface, too. The advantage is, those vessels can provide some radiation shielding by an arrangement of equipment around an inner cabin for persons.
Nanobots
What are Nanobots
Nanobots are robots made of nanomaterials that can carry out tasks. Scientists hope to use nanobots in medicine to kill cancer cells, deliver drugs to target tissues, and improve vaccines. Nanobots are also used in research as DNA probes, cell imaging materials, and cell-specific delivery vehicles.Soutik Betal, during his doctoral research at the University of Texas, San Antonio developed nanocomposite particles that are controlled remotely by an electromagnetic field. This series of nanorobots that are now enlisted in the Guinness World Records, can be used to interact with the biological cells. In the future we will have better and more improved Nanobots. By 2030 in about 10 years you will probably have millions of tiny Nanobots swimming through your bloodstream.
Hydrogen vs electric cars
Which is better? Hydrogen or electric? Well electric cars are certainly more popular but are hydrogen cars better for the environment? First of all a hydrogen car is like any other car but runs on hydrogen gas instead of conventional fuel. It does have an exhaust but it also has zero environmental impact. This is because instead of fumes coming out the tailpipe there is clear natural water instead. The difference in environmental impact between hydrogen and electric cars is how they are made.
Electric cars use batteries and hydrogen cars have fuel cells and they both work in similar ways it’s just that although electric cars are more popular there batteries use up more resources to make then it does to make a hydrogen cars fuel cells. Both Types of cars are priced about the same although Tesla does make their cars to a higher standard. So if you ever are thinking about buying a new car maybe hydro.
If you want to know which one is more efficient, costs less to run and is affordable you have to also look at the specs of the engine. A conventional Tesla takes a while to charge at the best of times but a hydrogen car just takes five minutes. Hydrogen cars are also way more efficient Cyborgs and prosthetics
What is a Cyborg?
A Cyborg is identified as a machine part of your body. It can receive commands from your Brain and carry out that command. You are a Cyborg if the Machine can give back sensations like feeling. For example; if you lost your arm or leg in a car crash, then you can get a robotic implant. It does what you tell it to and tells you what it is so posed to feel. To give a command to a robotic limb, you need a lot of practice because it's a new limb that you have never controlled before.
How fast will tech evolve?
Predictions about the future in the past have proven to be unreliable-(example)
But a lot of those predictions were made by random people with no evidence and people who were just thinking “you know what? I bet in 30 years we will have flying cars and will be living on the moon!”
Actually there were some smart people that tried to accurately predict what the future would look like and they got it sorta right. These predictions were made in the 1900s and were a lot more accurate; they essentially predicted mobile phones, it was just the details they got wrong. They had no way of predicting the advancements in touch screen technology and how powerful they could get without all the bulk. These predictions unlike others were actually underestimating the technology of the 21st century.
This is because in the last 20 years since the 21st century started there have been a lot of breakthroughs in technology and tech has and still is evolving faster than ever before. Scientists can now more accurately predict what the future will look like in the next fifty years because they are either already working on the technology or they plan to start working on it soon.
We also now know what is possible and what isn’t, what is conventional and what might damage our society. We are already making plans to move to mars and we are already engineering nanotechnology. There are things that people are 100% sure of we will see in the future such as: 3D printed food, fully automated driverless cars, gesture based computing(holograms), these things we are sure of because they are already possible we just need to inject them into society which is really the- hardest part.
This diagram (I made) Shows an evolution of technology, it misses out big things like when submarines were invented (1776) as well as planes (1903) and cars (1885). It doesn't include these things because it is showing the smaller less “world changing” things, like paper clips. This is because we can’t easily predict the same sorta “world changing” things in the future. It's easier to predict smaller things like 3D printed food and not underground tunnels leading from country to country.
It shows how fast general tech has developed in the last century and how fast it’s about to develop.
Conclusion
When you ask the question how will technology shape the future, it is actually a lot harder to answer than you might think. There are really two parts to the question; what will technology in the future look like and then how will that affect future society. You basically have to predict the future and that has never gone right. When we contacted our experts they used phrases like “the sky's the limit”.
Technology is already a big part of the present so how much will it be part of the future? I think the answer is technology is really the future. When you think about it, advanced technology is the next step in human evolution, if you picture the future most people imagine flying cars and space rockets and generally a really sci-fi scene. Things like this will happen (well not exactly like that,) but things like nano tech, living on mars, robots and AI, these things will become part of the future whether we like it or not.
Eventually the world will end and the only thing that can really save it is technology.

This is because we can’t easily predict the same sorta “world changing” things in the future. It's easier to predict smaller things like 3D printed food and not underground tunnels leading from country to country.
It shows how fast general tech has developed in the last century and how fast it’s about to develop.
Conclusion
When you ask the question how will technology shape the future, it is actually a lot harder to answer than you might think. There are really two parts to the question; what will technology in the future look like and then how will that affect future society. You basically have to predict the future and that has never gone right. When we contacted our experts they used phrases like “the sky's the limit”.
Technology is already a big part of the present so how much will it be part of the future? I think the answer is technology is really the future. When you think about it, advanced technology is the next step in human evolution, if you picture the future most people imagine flying cars and space rockets and generally a really sci-fi scene. Things like this will happen (well not exactly like that,) but things like nano tech, living on mars, robots and AI, these things will become part of the future whether we like it or not.
Eventually the world will end and the only thing that can really save it is technology.
