My house was built just before the First World War.
Yep, most of the homes were I live built before the 1960's.I;m lucky mine built 1968
Haha so true, my place was built in the 60s, as are most in auckland..
It's now very high-end, but there are people living in Habitat 67 even today. (Including the architect!)
So true! I live in an old southern mill village. My house was built in 1920! I think it’s charming and much better than these ugly “Jetson’s” abodes.
1960s: on my yearly salary I bought 2 vehicles, a trailer, a boat and 2 houses in just 10 years.
2023: my salary is 10x greater than salary in the 60s and I can barely make rent. I might not even get to finish writing this sentence because my landlord is going to turn off my electri

Microwave meals are extremely common

It's pretty interesting when u think about it, microwaves are insane pieces of technology
Top commemt
I looked up the origins of microwave ovens and found an article "A Brief History of the Microwave Oven" in IEEE Spectrum (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers. ) "at the 1933 World’s Fair in Chicago, Westinghouse demonstrated a 10-kilowatt shortwave radio transmitter that cooked steaks and potatoes between two metal plates." I had heard or read about someone finding a candy bar melting in their pocket while testing radar components. Early ovens (1940s and 50s) were about the size of a refrigerator and used so much power that heating up a meal would likely pop ALL the household fuses in the average home of the era.
"Computers may be as common as todays telephone.".... nailed it and more.....

Be it through trickle down economics or redistribution a la Europe (in a stronger form), in the past we tend to think that everyone will collectively reap the benefits of future tech and prosperity. Instead these benefits all go to a few instead of being divided among many is the unfortunate reality.

I love it. I watched this episode when it was first broadcast (as well as the series The 20th Century) back in the 1960s. I find it amusing that I am sitting here watching the same episode on The Internet from a room in Victorian home built in 1871. So much for the houses and furniture that look like they came out if The Jetsons. Like most images of a predicted future, the futurists forget what will be preserved from the past as we move into the future.
I'd always snickered at that. For some reason they thought we were gonna just lay waste to everything older than 1999 vintage and we'd all be living like the Jetson's. Frankly the architecture of new homes today aren't far off from what they were back then, except that instead of looking like Frank Lloyd Wright designed them, they're designed to retain the flavor of the environment and history they're built in. As a consequence even newer homes look vintage in places. Go to NE and you find people enjoying the trappings of 21st Century technology from the comfort of their 300-year-old cottage or estate. This vision of the 21st Century obliterates the influences of the past and pretends the entire landscape will look like something from _Blade Runner_ or _Demolition Man._
I grew up in a lovely old home that my great grandmother saw being built when she was a girl. There was something magical about that house and we owned it for over 60 years. My mom grew up there as well. When they sold back in 2006, the people who bought were just interested in dollars and no family has lived there since. It makes me sad knowing that. I loved that home and just want someone to love it like we do. I have many happy memories there.
You probably also remember how blatantly they actually disregarded the past in the 60s as well (cough Penn Station cough). I guess they just assumed that would keep going haha!
@@Zeoytaccount That's the way it had been for millennia, especially in the. US . If it falls down or is too costly to repair, just build a new one. At least that obvious crime started the historical preservation movement. I'm sure I was once in the old Penn Station, but I would have been very young. My mother & I were seeing her parents off on a train journey, that dates it.

The fact that they thought you'd need all these screens and devices dedicated to the news or the weather rather than just one computer fascinates me.
I know, right. They did have multiple TV channels back then, so why not make that leap?
Technology took space, mechanics, records and tapes, bulky CRT screens, energy, they generated heat and were heavy and expensive, and that was true even up to the early 2000s when TV was still analogue, you watched a movie on disc, listened to music on a stereo, went to your PC to get online, or got out your CD collection that you’d converted onto your iPod via your PC to listen to music.
It wasn’t until we got flat low energy screens, efficient batteries, fast computing, tiny affordable solid state memory and super fast wireless data connection that we could even conceive of small digital devices doing it all and that’s only occurred in the last 15 years.
For 2001 they did ok.
Yeah, I got a screened device for viewing the weather. It’s called a window.
Yeah... I had the same thought. Remember, though, that the concept of a personal desktop microcomputer was still a bit of a stretch, much less one that could incorporate all of these functions in a single device. Software and operating systems like iOS and Windows that provide convenient access to all these functions didn’t exist yet, and were probably well beyond the ken of most people.

This concept was killed off by massive overlending to sub prime buyers, post pandemic overpricing, massive buyouts by corporations like BlackRock, and the final blow was by insurance skyrocketing due to inflation and greed.

What does the demise of the family even mean. You just need more money to have a family now and less people are having kids at 15.

I find the stuff about inflatable furniture funny, especially because there was a trend for that in the late 90's/early 2000's in some places.
I remember for my 7th grade birthday party I got a purple inflatable chair. I was so excited. This was 2001. So they were accurate with that prediction.
Too bad they couldnt make it through the hey-day of smoking haha

One consistent thing I’ve noticed with any predictions of the future is overestimating how much technology will change and underestimating how much social change there will be.
Very true. There are limits.
They may have underestimated the ability for people to adapt to tech, and the level of planed obsolescence required for implementation of tech. People aren't as fascinated with home automation as they thought, or it may have happened sooner.
It took decades for computers to find their way into every home.
I wouldn't say they overestimated, they just estimated according to what they knew. After all, the internet is one of the most incredible inventions in human history. In combination with cell phones, almost everyone has immediate access to an unfathomable amount of information at all times. One device which we use to learn, network, socialize, and entertain ourselves. So after hearing this guy gush about an inflatable chair, I'd say they didn't overestimate; they simply estimated incorrectly.
The scientific community has often been composed of large numbers of fools who hold vast book knowledge in very small areas of a specific field.

10.08% of the population is on food stamps. 2021. Majority of those on food stamps live in California.
@@orated762 California only has the most of all states because it has the highest population of all states (9th largest economy in the world just as a single state alone)...which is expected statistically, so lmao who cares. More effective information would be the state percentage of those on welfare per the population of the state; ranked from the highest would be: 1-New Mexico, 2-West Virginia, 3-Louisiana, 4-Mississippi, 5-Oklahoma, etc... California doesn't even come close to the top 10, in fact, California actually ranks way down in 32nd place out of all states regarding those on food stamps as a percentage of the population. Not sure what you were trying to convey, but the majority of those on food stamps do NOT live in California...
Scientists forgot to predict the GREED of those who run corporations, stockholders, and small business owners when making this utopic prediction of a shorter work week. Isaac Asimov is guilty of the same thing. He talked about more leisure time for people coming in the near future... I call his prediction the Great Sci-Fi Lie.
The idea that he so casually mentioned “90% of Americans living in urban areas” is both crazy and scary.
It's also really, really close. In 2021 the urban/rural ratio was 86%/14%

I'm 76 & loved to see films, in the 1950's & '60's, about the 'near future', specifically the 21st Century!
Now that we are more than 20 years into that century, we can see that the predictors were both
correct & incorrect in their predictions! Most people still live in the same old, wooden houses; drive
newer, but still gas combustion cars & commute to jobs; miles away! Except for advances in
communication, far less than they predicted, has changed!
2020: People pushing doors when it says "PULL".
Also people "using the force" on automatic doors.
Bad doors are everywhere by Vox. It's a good video.
Something to help, most doors are pull on the outside and push one the inside. The reason for this is because there was a fire in a club once, and everybody crowded near the door. Unfortunately, the door was a pull door from the inside and the people couldn't get out because the door had no room to open. So now most doors are required to be a push door on the inside for easier escape access. I think that doors that aren't like that are illegal in some places.
@@laylacox77 I didn't know the history but assumed it was for safety. But why do doors in private houses open to the inside?

It always makes me chuckle to think they assume we all will live in brand new houses and not in exactly the same houses that were built in the 50's and 60s in spite of the fact that people have commonly stayed in the same homes for generations already.
Exactly. Most people just either end up living in the house they grew up in or a house that has been passed among different people for generations. New houses are for the wealthy.
They thought we’d have a walk in machine to remove lint electrostatically..nope 54 years later we’d still be rolling tape on our clothes.
I wanna know if they planned for what happens when you walk *out* of the electrostacally charged room. Like do pets not shed in the future?? You'd still have a charge

You have no idea how much I wish it were true that we could electrostatically get rid of dust mites forever! Or just get rid of them some how! I hate when I dust an area that hasn’t been dusted in a while and suddenly I’m not only sneezing, but worse, I’m ITCHING and even being pricked by tiny, unseen but ugly creatures that eat my hair and skin! They are so primitive that they don’t even have eyes! But oh, the damage they cause! Their diameter is only 1/3 of the width of a human hair, so no matter how hard you look, you’ll never see the micro monsters with your naked eye!!!! (Maybe it’s good that we can’t see them!)
Funny how these looks at the future always seem to be stuck in the aesthetic of when they were produced...
People have a hard time looking beyond what is currently fashionable.
OH YA 🤔🤔😂😂🤣
What “aesthetic”? That rounded house was considered bad taste back then, and the “prefab” houses were recognized as just mobile homes referred to in a fancy way.
They might have been popular in California, but no one but California thinks that anyone there has good taste.
It's unavoidable. Go back to the Fifties and their "Home of Tomorrow" had a full-size humanoid robot to do the job of a Roomba.

Lol. True. Back in the '90s when I was growing up, everything was its own separate device, and they were these big, heavy, blocky monstrosities that only public places, such as some schools, have. That wasn't that long ago, but even back then we couldn't imagine a pocket-sized device that could do all of these things, either. Now people can't imagine life without smartphones, lol.

@I’m eating cereal I've watched Social Dilemma. It's basically saying companies used psychology to get you hooked and create demand on their products. Targeting your very core habits.

I've read the book Atomic Habits and Power of Habits before I ever encountered the movie and so I kinda understand the whole movie how these technology creates great divide among people by feeding them with more information related to what they are seeking like how a confirmation bias happens.

Nah, not really. There already were microwave ovens, stereo, and frozen dinners when they made that.
A lot of that stuff existed back then. Not exactly the same as today and far more expensive than today. Computers existed (though they were massive).
