The way we are going now, the world can only be ugly in 2030, real ugly. I hate to be pessimistic, but the truth speaks pessimism in this area. I do hope for the best though, and I try to work for the best: google truth contest and read "The Present" to get us back on track for a bright future. You will see what I mean when you read the first page.

, in the academic community, trust me, many of us consider you a disgrace to science. Jet fuel does not melt nor compromise steel. -
Time will tell

Maybe he should stay out in space.... That's what "seems" to be his expertise....

The Naively Optimistic Future Self-Congratulatory World As If There Were No Other Scientists or Engineers. The better way to title this. Also, ignores anthropogenic climate disruption, peak everything, social breakdown caused by the last fifty (or 10,000) years of power plays by the plutocrats culminating in severe conflict between the Haves and the Have-Nots... not to mention the fact that Moore's Law doesn't mean that everything will automatically cost $0.01 to produce it. Our groundwater might as well be repackaged as diluted RoundUp. We'll have an ice-free Arctic ocean in the next few years with dire consequences for climate patterns in the North, which will in turn have significant impact on methane clathrates. The world's economic system of falsities, extortion, exploitation, and abstraction, is more unhealthy than it was in 2006, and financial collapse will make all of these widgets impossible to produce. Or, if we produce it, most of us won't have access, thanks to the vanishing middle-class and the lost generation.
But this sure feels nice to watch if you can ignore all that. -
Ok fuck this guy
-
dumbass phone, idiots of today with add will be useless, all this sounds awful
-
I want none of it, easier for someone to lie to me and misconceive the world, augmented reality or just making cern sound a little better for blowing up earth
-
this is too optimistic.... sounds like my machines live for me. i don't mind not working less but they sound like they may even take my art away idk.
