computer always break down. No matter how smart they are. And for those that cause accident all the time are people who doesn't pay attention on the road. Or doesn't know how to make their decision ahead of time. All I say is that computer will never be like human. Everything human created can never compare with what God created. The hardest thing a human cant create is put life back into a death body. And without losing his or her memory after he or she came back alive.
@hlubtiagproduction Really forward thinking. Technology doubles every 18 months. Do the math. Why don't you go fuck off to the dark ages where you belong your ignorant religious piece of useless shit.
and i saw another video with tubes like futurama for transportation. Dont you think alot of people would be angry if everything was installed and they couldnt drive anymore? and this seems like its only gonna happen in america and not in africa or something shouldnt we help our fellow countries before progressing, if all worked together instead of wars? think about the money you could save as well
ok as for the cameras on the car i dont think it should be a camera at all instead it should be motion dectors and not just in the middle, but over the whole grill of the car. and they should really work on the time it takes to calculate to faster, to happen in a split second.
Except what will power these cars? By 2057 cheap gas will be a thing of the past. If we don't come up with a comparative alternative we are all going to starve to death. Electric cars are fine for consumers, but you;re not going to have electric combines to harvest crops and electric ships and planes to deliver them across the world. Also, fertilizer requires the use of petroleum. Without oil, US agriculture could not support more than 1/3 of the 300+ million people living here
the sceptics only write about predictions which didnt happen, and what ? that didnt mean that the technology is not advancing exponentially, bases on the moon and flying cars are possible to engineer and could be made today, but simply the are not practical nowadays because of few reasons. The people back then were thinking differently
yea im pretty sure that the same people from like 1700,1800, and early 1900's said that by the year 2000 we would have flying cars and be able to teleport and stuff. Its now 2011 and we really should be living like this right now. Its the simple shit like spending billions on wars, paying millions for rappers and athletes to perform when doctors lawyers and inventors should be getting payed the big bucks. I bet china or japan is somewhat like this already. This country has everything backwards.
@year2kill2010 I doubt people from 1700 & 1800 would've said there would be flying cars by 2000 when the automobile wasn't even invented back then. Plus Japan & China certainly aren't like this. Go the those two nations and see rather than believe what something else says about them.
Alot of technology we use in the future will come from new invetions hence why it's so hard to predict what will take off. The Back To The Future movie never saw the internet being invented only a few years later.
the car idea would never work. Have they got any ideas how many roads there are out there. And what can happen to the chips they place in there. If you are suppose to be able to drive on more than dirt roads...down in the dirt a chip wouldnt last long. And what if a chip was damaged, what if solar flares shut down all our internet. What if the GPS system in space failed...I doubt anything like this would work. We humans are too primitive for this kinda of stuff.
The city the way I see it is a tinny internet, in that there are only a few hundred thousand people possibly connected at any given time. But never mind that's not important.
@Commandie070792pnt0 Smart cars lack the capacity for any sort of sexual orientation. They cannot be "faggots." They also lack asses. Therefore your description of smart cars as "faggot ass smart cars" is inefficient and false. YOu shall be dealt with systematically and permanently within the next 24 hours. Please present yourself in a non-resisting manner.
The boring thing is that most of this stuff is just a refinement of what is available today. The real changes will come from a paradigm shift breakthrough, such as faster than light travel, electrogravity, or discovery of extraterrestrials (if these happen)
What if someone that hates you hacks into your car and controls it to drive you off a cliff while you're locked inside D: they better think about that or else im sticking with our "modern" cars.
@hhamor whats wrong with the current way we live, arent we enoug fat, dumb and lazy already? i get things like advancements in medicine, and fuel emmissions, nature conservation and so on. But other than that like self driving cars, a automated house that cooks , opens doors,takes out trash etc are not required. We will end up even more fat ,lazy and we cannot think or do something on our own.
The future looks......bad. Humans wont be able to live without machines. They will depend on them. Goverment controlls them. We wont be able to think ourself.For example if there is for some reason an power failure or etc, what will we do? Stay home, unable to open the door and we dont know how to open the fridge and cook food.We will be lazy, fat and dumb. And the robots will take easily over. (watch i robot) They are talkin like its a good thing.
computers dont have judgements. yes it can see if a computer car is near it, but will it see a cat or a kid? id swerve to intentionally hit another car if it meant missing a kid.
also.. they are talking about computer cars like we actually WANT to sit in a car that drives itself. fuck that shit i wanna drive my own damn car
Whether or not they do accomplish all of this, only time will tell. However, just so you guys know, 100 years ago people thought flying was impossible. And look at us now, we have jets that can travel over twice the speed of sound. So at least be optimistic of the future.
in 1970 they thought we would be traveling to other planets by 2000 however their basis was on future technologies that did not exist then but might exist in the future, this however talks about technologies that exist now but arnt improved enough to do what we expect them too, that is a lot stronger of a basis than what technologies we might have, every single technology they describe is in the making now even clothes that monitor your vital signs are for sale right now :)
@utprizzo You forget that at this day in age, technology is advancing faster than before in our recorded human history. and they hope happen one at a time. They will occur instantaneously. And lets not forget that the government hides tech's from us, that they've discovered years ago. Someones keep quiet.
@utprizzo And yet they had yet to fly to space at that point. We actually have made advancements towards these things. Whether it be holograms, "smart cars", smart clothes, flying cars, etc, all the stuff in this video are based mostly on the very real advancements we have today. I don't expect it to be exactly like this, of course, but I expect to see a lot of this stuff by then, if not sooner.
@utprizzo well considering how much more advanced we are than back in 1950, this kind of extrapolation is more likely to be parallel to what is envisioned
@utprizzo true but on the other hand they dident have the skilled scientists we've got to day and modern technology to help us advance but i do know what you mean
@behnamasid actually war is quite a catalyst for technological advancement. Even Dr. Kaku himself loves to talk about how the internet was originally developed for a possible nuclear war with Russia, let alone all the other technology that began as military strategy and is now a regular household implement. I think the main reason it didn't happen is because most of that technology was put under public sector control, instead of being allowed to flourish in the competitive private sector.
@Bystander81: Well, the thing is, is that there's a lot of myths surrounding technology, even today. The internet having supposed origins in DARPA is one of them; DARPA only goes back to 1972.....the Internet was created as part of a research program at a university in Southern California, in 1969.
@utprizzo Yep, most of it won't come true, some might, some might even surpass our thoughts by some paradigm shift that we can't possibly understand right now.
@utprizzo I actualy think we can achieve this, but because companies wanna make money and not progress, they will sell us new things one by one, so they have so much profit as they can. And it can slower this process kinda well.
my point is that even the poorest people will be able to have ipods or holographic friends etc and the only expensive electronics in the future will be particular software programs not the electronic device itself, so whynot do this
so having our entire house full of electronic stuff like you see in sci fi movies is entirely plausible and will not cost much at all, like Michio Kaku said, computer chips that cost only a penny that are capable of phenomenal computational achievements, so everyone no matter how poor will be affected by this, as for huge screens like you see that is possible too seeing as they have put a working tv screen on a thin piece of plastic recently, and it doesnt cost much at all,
the thing is that due to the advancements in quantum computers and such, this future is not only possible it is probable, quantum computing allows computers to operate on atoms themselves, just recently they proved that 3 times 5 equals 15 on 7 atoms, that is quite amazing seeing as using atoms not silicon will increase computational power tremendously, such as operating on a few thousand atoms will surpass the power of computers now days by far.
Let me guess, the only one that can save the city from the virus is grandpa, so mom has to make up with him? Discovery must have some oscar-quality script maker...
Considering the resources and prices it cost for someone in the United States to live in the suburbs, the economy for this type of future really only exists for the people who can afford it and are born with it.
I seriously wonder if we're going to focus on entertaining technological advances more than helping others who in all reality don't need a fridge that can order food for you.
Here's an idea! Instead of making things better, let's make stuff for people who don't know what a pc is.
Technology doesn't make you lazy, technology free's you from the mundaine things in life so that you can be free to explore your interests. It also aims to help protect us and help us live longer and healthier.
You can't blame technology for your laziness, same as you can't blame drink for people's violent outbursts....ultimately, your choice is either to be lazy or do something with your life...your choice, make it wisely ;)
well, if you look at the new generation of kids, you'll notice that they are starting to use computers at a younger age. For them, lazy might be searching through google, instead of using their history textbook.
well it only makes you lazier if we succumb to it. But in a way it's true.... it'll become so easy to do things;that we might just rely on machines for everything.
We nearly already do! If our satellite system was to crash now, due to some massive solar flare or some such strong magnetic force, then it would render much of the technology we now rely on, useless.
We have already set ourselves up for a fall, might as well carry on eh?
I enjoy technology, but i can survive without it, lets hope people don't forget to pass on those skills...if they do, then we may well be in trouble after all!
If such an incident where to happen, I'll just whip up my book/manga/graphic novel and read in peace or brainstorm a new novella/novel.
But yeah, I remember questioning myself as to if it really WAS a good idea to have almost everything linked up to the internet (This might be solved by a separate network for police/hospitals/businesses/etc or something).
get on this car light a joint...have a mojito, have a wank if you like. I see you dont need to do anything anymore when machines are around...then why not just stop breathing one day and it'll be all easy...fuck..is making an effort so hard?
Driving can never be outdated! Diving is like having freedom, going where ever you want and doing what ever you like, because you are in control of the car. being taxied around by automated cars doesn't give you freedom at all.
The future car will have both automated ,and selfdrive ,but if you're drunk it will override the selfdrive. Plus the future car will have a scanner which will detect if there will be a collision before you would ever even know ,and it will brake automatically need be. Sure you can drive ,but you'll just be that douche who won't use automated ,and puts everyone else lives in danger by not doing so. You'd be selfish really.
you must be a person that needs to use a computer to help you parallel park.
1 - we already have collisoin prevention systems on vehicles (i.e Volvo's)
2 - there are already automated transportation systems (i.e Trains and Light rails why not take thoes instead)
3 - what will you do when there is no more technology for you to rely on?
4 - how can i be selfish to drive? no one's life can never be in danger, it's like telling the president he is selfish because he is commander in cheif
well, i personally wouldn't mind flying a car to work.... but instead of machines driving.. just have your body tell the car you are intoxicated, that way it wont turn on.
It would be cool if I could determine my car to drive by itself but just when I want to like when I'm drunk or so but the fun about driving is that you actually drive yourself and nobody should take me this pleasure
some of this stuff (like the computer graphics in that one house of the future were she was washing her hands) looks more low tech then todays graphics lol
well i think that ths our future and is only 40 or 50 years away as technology is sort of multiplier for eg the was not much a difference betweeen 4000 bc and 1000bc but if we see last 200-300 years our world has completely changed
I agree, butif yous ee the first part of this video, i don't thing holograams will be around,, if only because they will have NO market with that sort of simplicity as seen with the shark.
I hate the idea of not being able to drive to hell with that. I have no time for people that want to totally remove risk from daily life it would make life so bland.
Very true. It is nice to take the "fallible" human element out of driving, since that would drastically reduce the death rate from vehicle accidents, but it would make things bland, yes. There are pros and cons to it, but there's pros and cons to everything ;)
if we ever do have cars like in the video what is to stop the computer from making an error?Or possibly crashing? Or someone hacking the system causing the computer to create accidents rather than avoid them?
You would probably think that in 50 years from now the software engineering will finally mature. Because the current state of software engineering is just pathetic, creating software today is more an art and a matter of opinion than an industry process based on science.
you come to think about all that high teck shit .you want have any pravicy left ,the goverment will know every move you make what you ate ,where you went,what u bought ,who you did,
what do u think guys plz replay on my main page ,give me your openeion
Even if we have a wired city like this one it is better to have a decentralized control. If it's centralized a successful terrorist attack can "shut down" the entire city.
That's a good point .. remember what happened when will smith sent a virus to the mother ship on the movie independence day, all the ships were vulnerable and were destroyed easy .
@EMPPT We can modify every1 genetics so they won't be bad, plant chips in brain to make sure. no1 can do anything unless modify. Perfect world unless solar storms, meteorites, etc unless we have a sheild against them
A computer virus can devastate a entire city because it will damage the main software and shut down any homes or devices that are connected to the software.
I actually experienced the self-driving car myself once in a tech discovery class in high school. Granted, it was on a small scale, and the technology was actually used mainly by factories. It's called an AGV, Automated Guided Vehicle, and Wikipedia has a good article about it.
It's incredible, and the fact that that technology is already six years old is even more phenomenal.
With these AI controlled cars, there'll be no need for speed limits again. A car can go as fast as processing will allow, and there'll be no collisions.
imagine the system crashing or generating random errors and driving people off a bridge or someone spreading a virus into a bunch of cars to accelerate them to max speed and collide at one point killing off huge bunch of ppl
by the way EMP is electromagnetic pulse a nonlethal surge of radiation that wrecks havoc with anything electronic eventully shutting it down or destroying it.
if we ever do have cars like this what is to stop the computer from making an error? or someone hacking the system causing the computer to create accidents rather than avoid them?
...Walls, furniture, and appliances all have cameras and microphones that respond to visual and verbal commands... talk about lack of privacy...

@Bystander81: Well, the thing is, is that there's a lot of myths surrounding technology, even today. The internet having supposed origins in DARPA is one of them; DARPA only goes back to 1972.....the Internet was created as part of a research program at a university in Southern California, in 1969.

@utprizzo Yep, most of it won't come true, some might, some might even surpass our thoughts by some paradigm shift that we can't possibly understand right now.

@utprizzo I actualy think we can achieve this, but because companies wanna make money and not progress, they will sell us new things one by one, so they have so much profit as they can. And it can slower this process kinda well.

my point is that even the poorest people will be able to have ipods or holographic friends etc and the only expensive electronics in the future will be particular software programs not the electronic device itself, so whynot do this
OlCapitain 1 year ago
so having our entire house full of electronic stuff like you see in sci fi movies is entirely plausible and will not cost much at all, like Michio Kaku said, computer chips that cost only a penny that are capable of phenomenal computational achievements, so everyone no matter how poor will be affected by this, as for huge screens like you see that is possible too seeing as they have put a working tv screen on a thin piece of plastic recently, and it doesnt cost much at all,
OlCapitain 1 year ago
the thing is that due to the advancements in quantum computers and such, this future is not only possible it is probable, quantum computing allows computers to operate on atoms themselves, just recently they proved that 3 times 5 equals 15 on 7 atoms, that is quite amazing seeing as using atoms not silicon will increase computational power tremendously, such as operating on a few thousand atoms will surpass the power of computers now days by far.

Considering the resources and prices it cost for someone in the United States to live in the suburbs, the economy for this type of future really only exists for the people who can afford it and are born with it.
I seriously wonder if we're going to focus on entertaining technological advances more than helping others who in all reality don't need a fridge that can order food for you.
Here's an idea! Instead of making things better, let's make stuff for people who don't know what a pc is.

@anthonyandfreinds
Technology doesn't make you lazy, technology free's you from the mundaine things in life so that you can be free to explore your interests. It also aims to help protect us and help us live longer and healthier.
You can't blame technology for your laziness, same as you can't blame drink for people's violent outbursts....ultimately, your choice is either to be lazy or do something with your life...your choice, make it wisely ;)

well it only makes you lazier if we succumb to it. But in a way it's true.... it'll become so easy to do things;that we might just rely on machines for everything.

We nearly already do! If our satellite system was to crash now, due to some massive solar flare or some such strong magnetic force, then it would render much of the technology we now rely on, useless.
We have already set ourselves up for a fall, might as well carry on eh?
I enjoy technology, but i can survive without it, lets hope people don't forget to pass on those skills...if they do, then we may well be in trouble after all!

If such an incident where to happen, I'll just whip up my book/manga/graphic novel and read in peace or brainstorm a new novella/novel.

Driving can never be outdated! Diving is like having freedom, going where ever you want and doing what ever you like, because you are in control of the car. being taxied around by automated cars doesn't give you freedom at all.
contractki11er 2 years ago 5
The future car will have both automated ,and selfdrive ,but if you're drunk it will override the selfdrive. Plus the future car will have a scanner which will detect if there will be a collision before you would ever even know ,and it will brake automatically need be. Sure you can drive ,but you'll just be that douche who won't use automated ,and puts everyone else lives in danger by not doing so. You'd be selfish really.
convulsion123 2 years ago
you must be a person that needs to use a computer to help you parallel park.
1 - we already have collisoin prevention systems on vehicles (i.e Volvo's)
2 - there are already automated transportation systems (i.e Trains and Light rails why not take thoes instead)
3 - what will you do when there is no more technology for you to rely on?
4 - how can i be selfish to drive? no one's life can never be in danger, it's like telling the president he is selfish because he is commander in cheif

You would probably think that in 50 years from now the software engineering will finally mature. Because the current state of software engineering is just pathetic, creating software today is more an art and a matter of opinion than an industry process based on science.

I actually experienced the self-driving car myself once in a tech discovery class in high school. Granted, it was on a small scale, and the technology was actually used mainly by factories. It's called an AGV, Automated Guided Vehicle, and Wikipedia has a good article about it.
It's incredible, and the fact that that technology is already six years old is even more phenomenal.
