A clip from the movie Wall-E
Can you imagine a future were we are completely dependent on Robots for every aspect of our lives.
From moving from one place to another, getting fed, being thought, and even getting our clothes color chosen.
In the movie Wall-E this is what the future has come to. In the beginning of the clip a man(John) falls out of his hover chair; over weight due to possibly no exercise and smoothie food drink when ever he wants, can't seem to get up looking like a turtle on his back.
This is a bit shocking, as you keep watching you can see that there are swimming pools, tracks, and paying attention John and his friend talked about a golf swinging course. This shows that the means to live a healthy fit life exists. Yet the technology that exists lets most people just sit around all day and do every thing from sleeping to eating and entertaining yourself, from the comfort of a chair.
In today's society we are easily influenced by what we see in the media, in the clip there was an announcement about trying blue, because "it's the new red," the people all quickly change there outfits to blue. this can already be seen today by what we all see threw the media. We will buy a new phone because its the newest and latest technological advancement, or change styles to match that of celebrities we like. We believe what is posted on the internet for most things, even if we don't see any sigh on authenticity.
The future with the help of technology could still take on a different turn. We could grow as a global community into a UTOPIA. A society where everything we need is on our hands. sure this kind a future is yet to come but technology will play a great role in it's development.
The internet giving us knowledge and connection between many people world wide.
Medical equipment improving our medical practices, and prolonging our lifespans. As well as bettering our overall health.
Laboratory grown food, solving hunger and freeing up farmland for restoration of natural landscape. Which cleans our atmosphere of current pollutants. Clean fuels like Nuclear Fusion, wind, solar, and hydro.
Technology is there to help but it is up to us to use it in a way that will benefit our future

Hopefully, Albert Einstein prediction does not complete about having a generation of idiots.
