The world in 2200 (personal vision)

" I wanted to ask myself this question in order to open myself to new problems. I have based myself on three axes that I have developed to the maximum:

- The medical axis, with advances in medicine and technological advances, it is very easy to imagine the modification of the bioethical rules, thus making it possible to make cell development, tissue or organic reconstruction. We can imagine a symbiosis between man and technology and thus have nano-organisms grafts that come to rebuild us internally ..we can imagine that for a part of the population in 2200 that death is no longer inevitable, in any case physical death.

- The ecological and environmental axis, we consume fossil energies in large quantities, however there will come a time when this will no longer be possible, we will see the emergence of clean energies, clean cities, all this would be self managed in part by the same companies that provide fossil energy. It is understandable that today these companies are cautious about developing clean energy knowing that a large part of the world economy is based on the development of fossil energy. However, this sudden rise in clean energy will certainly come too late to save some of the species and the planet from global warming, but it will still have a major impact on the world. One could then see a modification of the world map, with possible development of countries currently developing (thanks to these clean energies). The middle class would disappear in favor of two great social classes, the high middle which accedes to the clean energy, life in clean cities preserved. And the low middle still living through fossil energies in cities where nature wants to regain its place. It will be at this time that we could see the emergence of protected eco park, in the spirit of nature reserves.

 

- The technology axis, man obsessively seeks to develop technology in his company, we turn to a world where Omni technology is present, information is found everywhere with product development like Google glass , Personalized and directed information for us. However, we will have seen the emergence of artificial intelligence, which will upset the social rules and will lead to many questions about the well-being or not of this innovation. Finally little by little Man will be replaced by machines that are faster, more efficient and do not make any mistake."

All these evolutions will bring new problems, whether on reflections around the end of life because even if our body can live forever, our mind will be damaged with time, which will lead to a moment of rupture or the individual will want this technology to leave.

Problems linked to bioethics but also to ecology, the development of clean cities, new architecture, the creation of new clean products, the recycling of old energies ... Not to mention the problems related to overpopulation, famine or war.

Finally, many problems concerning artificial intelligence, the place of a machine capable of thinking by itself in our world, the place of robotics and finally the place of man. A Man who wishes to isolate himself from an ultra-connected world.

The aim of this prospective analysis is to project itself concretely into a possible future, to develop a critical approach and to have a personal vision on the subject.
