| I'm Indian, so some of my predictions are about India. # Global Issues 1. More pervasive surveillance states across the world. 2. Even more polarized politics across the world, with major riots between factions, i.e. hundreds dead as a result. 3. More Indian cities with unbreathable air. More toxic pollutants make it into our food-chain, and hundreds of millions of Indians and Chinese will find themselves unable to escape the rather drastic consequences. 3. Antibiotic resistant diseases are way more common, all because of how animals are farmed in the developing world. 4. The problem of corruption (esp. India) still has no end in sight. 5. China to be the de facto owner of many countries. # Sci/Tech 1. Intel/AMD/Nvidia, Android/iOS will remain as dominant as they are now. But Android will borrow some features from Fuchsia. 2. China and India continue to install GW-scale solar energy farms. 3. Lab-grown meat available at your local grocery. 4. More electric car brands manufactured across the world. 5. Neural network will become more ubiquitous, often going hand-in-hand with IoT. |
