Predicting the Future Technology
Does it seem to you like the most popular social/media posts are related to predicting the impact of technology on humans. How robots will do everything better than humans. What jobs will humans no longer have the "privilege" of doing compared to the jobs of the future. Or how colleges are not properly educating the future generations to perform the jobs of the future.
One interesting observation is the amount of dollars and work being performed not to have robots do work currently performed by humans, but to do that work "like" humans.

I’m not smart enough to know what the future holds but I can look at the direction and make some very strong predictions.
Humans will become isolated and crowded at the same time
Humans using computers will limit human freedom including movement selling security
Remote Communications will make it impossible to tell who is speaking
Human interaction skills will be lost
Work places will be anywhere and nowhere at the same time
High end life decisions will become difficult or impossible for humans to make
Life will have less value
Simple tasks which make life possible will be lost to humans
Computers which sustain life will be the first casualty in any war.
