Anglais: to go further, what would life be like in 2050 ?

« Projet # 2 We often wonder what our future would look like, what we will become five or ten years from now.

But to go further, what would life be like in 2050 ? Thanks to a great deal of research and cutting-edge technology, scientists working in this field already have estimates of what lies ahead in a few decades.

Let’s find out how human life will become in 2050, transformed by all these technological and scientific advances ! I’m going to introduce you to the five great potential things that can be part of our lives in 2050. Firstly by 2050, or perhaps in a few years' time, it is estimated that there will be more than a billion electric vehicles on earth, with the aim of minimising pollution from conventional engines.

It is expected that many countries will stop selling traditional cars and thus ban driving them in their territories.

The cars we know today will no longer belong to this world, they will only belong to museums and films.

We also expect that there will be autonomous cars, without drivers, able to drop us off when we want and where we want to be safe. Passengers will be able to take care of other things than driving safely.

This will be good for the environment and for technological progress, however it will have disadvantages for industrial jobs, such as car manufacturers, mechanics, taxi drivers … Secondly, technology will make great strides, particularly with the introduction of robotics. This is already evident in many fields, there are already machines capable of performing various activities in many fields, such as medicine, the military, space and agriculture.

This is possible by imitating the movements made by an operator.

Robotics therefore offers a new form of help to humans.

During the performance of a task, the work becomes less physically and psychologically strenuous and promotes independence and versatility.

According to many scientists, by 2050, robots will become sociable and autonomous, part of our daily lives, and their presence will become a commonplace reality.

However there is a risk, the risk is that if robots replace humans in too many areas, unemployment and poverty will multiply in human society. Thirdly mobile phones and internet are something that is constantly growing.

To over the years, we have witnessed the massive evolution of the devices we use every day.

In 2050, mobile phones may not cease to exist, but they will change.

They could be smaller, with flexible screens and a more powerful battery, with the ability to charge them via Wi -Fi. In 2050, mobile phones might be smarter, it will be possible to see many things around us, such as shoes, glasses or cars, being used to send data, while being connected.

For example it will be possible to take our shower, to use a touch board integrated in the shower, it will be provided with various features more impressive than the others. In addition to the electric cars and the one without passengers, another means of transport makes a lot of noise.

It is a question of the Hyperloop designed by Elon Musk in 2013.

A “super-sonic” train, propelled at very high speeds (1220 km/h) in a vacuum tube, should be able to connect two very distant cities in a short time.

Ex : San Francisco / Los Angeles (616 km away) in 35 minutes, for 20 dollars.

This futuristic means of transport, designed by Elon Musk, would be safer, more economical, more environmentally friendly and more comfortable than what is currently available.

This machine will be powered by solar energy. »
