I wake up exactly at the
ideal time of my REM
sleep with my brain

PAST
TECHNOLOGY
INSTANT MEDICINE
I feel a little weak. All
my body data has
already been sent to
my doctor for analysis
with a recommendation
for him to prescribe
drugs
My personalized pills
are 3D printed as I
wake up
MY MEDITATION
I meditate and get an
immediate analysis of
the key ideas in my
mind and can save
some items as to do
items.
My statistics are
projected on the wall of
my bedroom, it shows
me I passed 5,000
hours of meditation. In
2045 I will finally reach
the 10,000 hours that
are supposedly so
helpful.
AUGMENTED REALITY
Information follows me. New Google Glass is a contact lens projecting on my retina
BREAKFAST TIME
GMOs have become
common to reduce
human diseases
3D printing enables
humans to print any
food
HYDROFOILING
It was a lot of fun riding my
hydrofoil yesterday I’m going
to print a few new wings to
test them later
I PRINT WHAT I
NEED
INSTA3D
I’m so impressed how
Insta3D, formed in
2012 became a billion
dollar company so fast.
Printing any object is
widely available at
Starbucks.
There are thousands of
startups that create
object on demand.
MAKILABS was a
pioneer in this field.
MOST OBJECTS ARE
FREE OPEN SOURCED
I remember I bought an
Encyclopedia when I was a
student in the 1990s.
Then, knowledge became
free.
Now most objects can be
downloaded and printed
nearly for free, personalized
to my tastes.

HOW I RUN
I’m going for a run
outside. My knees are
both artificial so I never
have a knee pain ever
again, I run at 15 km/h
for an hour thanks to
my Biomechatronics
enhanced legs

MY CAR
I jump into my self driving
car. Remember the Google
Self Driving car video? Now
it’s everywhere.
Self driving cars reduced
accidents to all time low
VINTAGE SELF
DRIVERS
We look at people driving
their cars as people using old
Nokia phones and laugh,
unless it’s a cool car.

MOST MONEY MANAGERS WERE REPLACED BY AI YEARS AGO
PROTESTS AGAINST ROBOTS HAVE MULTIPLIED. AS TAXI DRIVERS PROTESTED

7 BILLION PEOPLE ARE CONNECTED TO THE INTERNET FOR
FREE
100% CONNECTED
All objects around
me are connected
100% of the time
and keep updating
themselves
WORK FREEDOM
Starting with Uber in
Lyft, people work
whenever they want,
wherever they want.
The market of
microwork exploded,
individuals have all
become consultants for
high value-added
missions.

ENERGY
All power is renewable,
dominated by solar panels
and energy storage, which
have both become very
cheap.
Upgraded power grids work a
bit like the Internet did back in
2015.
Electricity is distributed,
shared, and stored like data
was then, and it's abundant -
even though more electricity
was needed to replace fossil
fuels. This process has gone a
long way to helping solve
climate change.

NO MORE WALLETS
Most businesses that
don’t have a social or
environmental
mission have died
out, as nobody wants
to buy their products.
