If you are involved with technology or have a futuristic mind then you can fairly understand how future will be. We can understand about Artificial Intelligence, IOT, VR, AR and other areas. IOT/Connected devices seem to a big disruptive thing many people are talking about now a days.
All the current expected disruptions will definitely create very very exciting things. But I think this is still just beginning. Why? I think we still have not cracked THE biggest asset – Brain/Mind. Once we are able to decode the data inside the brain (emotions, memories and beliefs ) and connect them to the other brains then the real fun starts. This means we will be moving from “Internet” to “Brain-Net”. We can indirectly achieve what we esoterically as “collective consciousness”. Technology can make this possible (this may not be the preferred way). Once this happens there will be huge revolution is the way communication happens between people. Basically, if your spouse or boss says they can’t understand you then you can ask them to “step into your brain” ( no more step into your shoes). At some point, you will be able to control the emotions you want to experience and delete the memories you would like to. This can solve major mental related problems by upgrading your brain with quality data (memories, emotions, etc)
Now all these may look like some sci fi movie stuff but at some point in time this will become reality.
Physicist Dr. Michio Kaku is a big believer in this Brian-Net concept. Watch the below video if you are interested in this topic.
