Everybody is so goddamn ****ing happy and positive.
Future Predictions for Future Producers:
1) We will harness the power of the sun by building massive solar panels all the way around it. This will be the end of our power problems.
2) We will, by extention, learn to generate massive amounts of power from black holes. This revolution will put our current power plants to shame.
3) Humankind will evolve to see more discrete colors (colors we haven't seen before, even on drugs). These colors will allow us to notice things that we didn't before.
4) By extension of our new perceptual skills, we will evolve to perceive the passage of time in a similar way to how we perceive light or sound.
5) Like an oscilloscope, we will be able to clearly visualize soundwaves as they enter our minds.
6) To help control overpopulation, our race will evolve to have four different sexes who must all have intercourse at the same time in order to conceive a new baby. Sexual selection will be more refined than ever.
7) Critical thinking will be thrown to the curbside. Instead of arguing with someone who is perceived as being wrong, the majority will ignore the viewpoint. People have already recognized that children respond better when rewarded for doing good than when they are punished for doing bad; Instead of focusing on shooting down bad ideas, we will focus on building up good ones.
8) The new challenges of survival in the future will bring back our sense of community -- the feeling we get when we're united together for a common goal rather than competing amongst ourselves. This sense of community evolved when we all had to work together to survive in desolate climates, or we would all die. In our modern society, where it's so easy to meet our basic needs, the most common thing to struggle against is one another. The future in space and on the earth will be another harsh transition that will force us all to work together or die together.
The reason it's so hard to come up with realistic-sounding positive predictions is that if we knew how to do these things, we'd be doing them (or in the process of doing them) already. I sound like a crazy person making these predictions because it's impossible to look into the future using deductive logic.
