Every day, scientists conduct pioneering experiments with the potential to transform how we live. Yet it isn’t every day you hear from the scientists themselves! Now, award-winning author Jim Al-Khalili and his team of top-notch experts explain how today’s earthshaking discoveries will shape our world tomorrow - and beyond.
Pull back the curtain on genomics, robotics, AI, the Internet of Things, synthetic biology, transhumanism, interstellar travel, colonization of the solar system, teleportation, and much more.
And find insight into big-picture questions such as:
Will we find a cure to all diseases?
The answer to climate change?
And will bionics one day turn us into superheroes?
These scientists are interested only in the truth - reality-based and speculation-free. The future they conjure is by turns tantalizing and sobering: There’s plenty to look forward to, but also plenty to dread. And undoubtedly the best way to for us to face tomorrow’s greatest challenges is to learn what the future looks like - today.

Great enigma, consent chips for sex robots will be a necessitous innovation for these future boffins lest we be faced with a “Me-Too-Dee-Two” movement.

Thanks mate, sounds like a good read!

caesar963: “Necessitous” does not mean what you think it means, edgelord.

Great to see you finally hit the lexicon wishfire! Time now for you to expand and grow like we know you can. There are geographical, regional and cultural variations in usage. And across time as well - etymologies reveal this. There are numerous dialects across Ireland and Britain alone. I’d refer you to the one called Hiberno-English.
However, I know you’re above any snarky pedantry. On a related matter, I was driven to consult the glossary myself - edgelord! Under no circumstances does that apply to anything I was trying to express. I was obviously making a serious point around AI and autonomous agency.
It’s just not necessitous to be so provocative.

wishfire22 - dont 1 star the book if you don’t understand it / haven’t read it
caesar963 - stfu. no one cares what words you know, or the nuances with how you use them. You revealed yourself as an alt right supporter, and in that instance, lost all right to decency or respect.
Instead of trying to get your head round a dictionary or glossary, try getting your head around around general human rights and decency. Then maybe, just maybe, you’ll have earnt some back.

tbh caesar963, I just re-read, and may of jumped the gun.. I think you were making more of a point about how human’s would act, rather than being derogatory about the me2 campaign (just to fit in with the alt right agenda (which is all to prevalent here)).
Since getting silenced by a racist mod / there’s a lot of hate mongering and neo nazi uploads & posts to catch up on calling out.. Apologies

No problem man! The internet makes everyone jumpy.
I don’t think I’m an alt right but I’ll keep an eye on myself. Peace, love, respect.
