  • That I actually WILL carry a calculator in my pocket all the time, and use it to talk to people across the world

  • There will be rockets that land themselves back on the ground after launching sattelites, but the people that make them are evil.

  • AI is definitely at the top of my list. I didn’t think it would have ever come sooner at my lifetime.

    • Came here to say: divorced

      My Catholic mother always talked about divorce like it was one notch short of theft or larceny. Yet it was key to regaining joy in my life

  • That mum is actually nana and aunt Susan with the eye is really mum, also robots are dancing now.

  • That I am actually able to sit in front of a desk for 8 hours straight
