Races will fade away: what the world and people will look like in 2050

“The division between races will become increasingly narrower. Nowadays people meet on the Internet and do not pay attention to skin color or eye shape. Of course, some characteristic features will remain, and you will still notice it if you come to, say, Asia. According to surveys, modern youth are loyal to interracial relationships. And over time, the division will fade into oblivion,” writes the author Popular Science Blog on Yandex.Zen.

Next - from the first person.

So what will happen in the end? Many, many diverse people of mixed races, or, conversely, a kind of single average? Experts are inclined to the second option. There will be a certain general type of people with individual external characteristics.

Such a scenario is possible in the USA and Europe. But what about the whole world?

If you draw up a portrait of the average earthling, that is, with the most common nationality, age and gender, then a citizen of the world is a 28-year-old Chinese. But India is overtaking China in terms of growth rates and may soon take first place. By 2050, a 34-year-old Indian woman is likely to become a global citizen.

What will life be like in 2050?

The main factor influencing the world in the coming decades is artificial intelligence and nanotechnology. Just as electricity and the internal combustion engine once turned the world upside down, so they will change it now.

And if earlier the main resources for energy were oil and gas, now it is data.

Communication barriers will be destroyed. On the Internet we can broadcast emotions. Like emoticons now, but only for real. And the person on the other end will understand exactly what you feel. Of course, artificial intelligence will soon learn how to perfectly translate from any foreign language.

The value of household items that shopaholics chase after will decrease. After all, any item can simply be printed on a 3D printer. The main thing is to buy or make an interesting design. This is where people will compete. No one has a cooler car and who paid more, but who came up with a more interesting idea. Creative freedom will come to the fore.

By the way, life expectancy will not grow because they invent new drugs. It’s just that health scanners will appear at your place, which will redirect information themselves in case of any threat. The disease can be recognized at the initial stage. And artificial intelligence will give accurate recommendations as an experienced doctor. And do it right away.

Elites will begin to lose power

This is my personal forecast. It is becoming increasingly difficult for politicians and oligarchs to manipulate people. This is a trend all over the world. If earlier it was enough for a politician to point a finger at the enemy and a war would begin, now people filter any statements by those in power.

Young people (adults of the future 2050) do not see the point in conflicts between countries. It becomes obvious to everyone that it is not countries, not nations, but elites who are in power that are in conflict. So why help them? They already have power and money.

It seems to me that the main thing that will happen in the world of 2050 is the erasing of borders between countries. It is now becoming obvious that people have a lot in common.

And when effective translators invent, it will become very simple to communicate with Europeans, Asians and Americans.
