When the main thing stopping them from launching nukes at each other is mutually assured destruction. What do you think they will do? When they know there family and themselves can escape and humanity wont go extinct. They can just live on Mars. Then come back to earth in 100 years or so. I'll give you a hint they do not give a crap about us. Just what they can get from us.

      It may be experimental tech that already exists today. Brain mapping, leading to predicting actions. The next step is mimicking what the thoughts are. In your subconscious, you know the sound of her voice because the brain records it. Some drugs allow you to bring down that wall and profoundly experience some things in the subconscious, but that is just an off subject easter egg.

      Such a sad comment. I feel sorry for that. There is nothing more important in the world than our mother's voice. Hope somehow your brain picks it up and bring it back to you. It is there. You heard it when you where in her womb, or in that short time she was in your world. That memory is there. A dream might one day bring it back to you. Meanwhile, good luck.

      The teachers in many of our schools do not have the resources to do their jobs, and have to hold down second jobs in order to live indoors. When I worked in a bookstore, I saw teachers spending their own money to get that they need for their classrooms, and that’s money they’ll never get back. I could go on, but we get far more than we pay for from teachers.

      Just take a look on human history: - Its a simple fact, that it is characteristic for humans, to turn every ingenious idea soon into something bad, because once such an idea is appearing, it soon will be overlapsed by what may be the "dark sides of human drives": personal interests, greed, envy, egomany, paranoia,...all that bad elements of humans mind, that are generally described by - for example - the biblical "death sins"... . - There are countless examples in history for that: Soon after man made the first spears and bow and arrow, he found out, that he could not only use them for hunting, but also to kill other humans, he didn't like! -'The discovery of metal soon lead to the construction of better weapons and arms to kill, - the same with gunpowder ( lomg before europeans had the idea to use it as a weapon, the chinese had it, but used it only for fireworks!), not long after the discover of radioactivity the first a-bomb was been built, the dscovery of money was originally meant as a more practical way to exchange products, but soon the first human came to the idea to use it to make profite and plunder out his human mates. - Automobiles, aeroplanes, submarines, chemicals, gas, satellites, every form of science - even economy and psychology .... whatever you want, it was soon used to gain power above others, destroy life, to satisfy any kind of dark needs, to kill others....
      So it is in fact very naive and stupid, to point out imaginatios of what "glorious progress" technology may bring in the future, when you don' t waste a look on the overwhealming problems reality shows - and the dark side of humans intentions. This man here looks on everything only from one - the "pink" - side of life - he looks at a hypothetical future of world, as he WISHES it to be, not as it - objectivly seen - will use to be - and thats the principally, enormous fault he makes! ...the hard to understand thing is, that he is a scientist .... he REALLY should know it better.....
      Technologies doesn't have the solutions for our problems here on earth - they are complete useless, if mankind formerly and/ or parallel doesn't develop another general state of mind, thats more "constructive" and "collective" ( ... in a empathetic, not "communist" meaning!) less egomanic and missguiding and far less "destructive"!

External limbs were no longer required to function. I’ve long since forgotten the name of the series but have always wondered if that was where mankind was eventually headed.

Now even homeless people have them.
      New technology might only come about to benefit the rich and powerful but eventually as it becomes cheaper to produce and it's usage expands beyond it's initial conception us peasants will get it eventually.

The human mind is incapable of setting the tone for fairness. It's just not there and never will be. It's just a surreal that this is what life is really about

      As far cancer goes, veganism is shown to greatly reduce mortality. Does someone study how and why? Nope, the ones that do it have no funding from big corporations that don't look at the subject.
      It was shown that some sorts of mushrooms help greatly and there were experimental cases where some cancers on the latest stages were fully healed with expensive mushrooms cocktails. Did they try to investigate how to breed those mushrooms in larger quantities and make procedure cheaper and widely available? Nope, but they study mushrooms for their properties to make chemo therapy a tiny bit better and a lot pricier.
      Nano bots aren't magic. Want to make injection? Syringe. Want to cut it off? Scalpel. Without understanding of how to revert the process that kickstarted cancer cells to become more active all of this is useless. Even if cancer is removed it doesn't mean that cancer cells won't appear somewhere else at some point in time. Chemeo therapy just kills everything including normal cells but it also not a 100% guarantee.

    The amazing thing about Michio Kaku is his tremendous cognitive dissonance. He just mentioned self replicating robots, yet he believes that human labor will never be obsolete. In his 100 year predictions, capitalism still exists as if it will never be obsolete even after all human labor is completely obsolete. Where will mass market demand come from with no consumer base of workers with jobs. If capitalism lasts another 100 years, then the human species will not. Capitalism will outlast us as a supply and demand algorithm with no biological component.

      Give a 10 homeless men $100,000 each, and within 3-4 years, all but 2 of them will be back on the streets. In most cases, poverty is a lifestyle, a sum of personal choices especially in the developed world. It's hard to get rich, but it's easy to get out of poverty if you're willing to make the right steps. However on a global scale, give the residence of China and India, the same amount of resources per person North American's use, there wouldn't be enough resources inside the earth's ground to make that happen, let alone the people in Africa. Humanity will always be in this equilibrium balance between rich and poor, hunger and excessive consumption. Unless the whole world population drops back a couple billion, it'll be impossible for everyone to live comfortably. There is only that much land.

    Technology is always a double-edged sword. I think in the future, movies will become outdated, open-world VR will be the new thing, with infinite possibilities. People get to choose what their "movie" would be like with them as part of it. Reality will be split into different worlds, VR and this reality. On the other hand, It will be the new addiction damaging people's lives.

      Another distant future is that sexuality and physicality is not anymore a thing. You can modify and enhance yourself, create a new being without the sperm or egg, make AIs as part of humanity, if we are even still called humans.

    This guy wants us to make replicators. Just see how well that worked out on Stargate Atlantis, or SG-1.

      Why do you think they're so desperate to replicate the human genome? We will be replaced. It's the theme of many scifi books, movies, and video games. The plebs will be gone and will only be the elite and their machines.
