Timeline of Future Events
Ladies and gentlemen, I have been struck down by clairvoyance!
Indeed, through mystical powers beyond ordinary mortal comprehension, I have been gifted with the ability to see the future.
My following predictions aren't really predictions, as they are in fact the truth. ...Except for where they're not necessarily true, at least, not literally true... They aren't wrong, of course, just, like, you're going to need to interpret my words very loosely to make them true. But, ah, that is a problem for future souls to worry about ;)
For now, just take my word that everything I tell you about the future, really will happen.
Because I have suddenly developed mystic powers, and my words are spoken through the soul of a far greater force of time-averted nature than you could ever possibly comprehend :)
That's right! Prepare yourself, for I am Baba Vanga'ing this bitch up! :P
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2069:
People all over the civilised world, will be celebrating a global holiday that's held on the 20th of April. There will be a great mass protest. Although peaceful at first, by the end of the night, there will have been 420 stabbings, and 69 shootings recorded across the western world's major cities. Bookies sigh in huge relief that no one thought to take a bet on those numbers happening on that day!
2076:
Advancements in quantum computing has allowed mankind to master the art of AI. Both robots and computers alike are very easily able to pass the Turin Test. Mankind keeps AI just dumb enough in order to maintain a free and easy-going slave workforce.
2099:
Travel to the moon will have become so monotonous, that the biological Luna workers working there view travelling to and from the Earth as tedious as any other typical daily commute.
2119:
Humour becomes outlawed in New Britain. The highest court in the land rules that every and all forms of humour and comedy is of the most highly offensive material to others, as no joke is truly "non-offensive". Anyone caught cracking a joke, faces up to 20 years in prison for causing mass public offence.
2121:
There are political movements in other countries, with both supporters and detractors of this anti-comedy law fighting to introduce/repel it into their own doctrine. Most fighting is completely bloodshed free, as it all happens in flamewars on "woke" online posts, and neither side really wants to offend the other side.
2123:
Underground comedy clubs are booming. New Britain's government loses a fortune in tax revenue due to this comedy black market.
2130:
All narcotics and illegal highs become legal across the globe.
2132:
The British anti-comedy law gets repealed, due to the massive influx of comedy mafia groups having seized a lot of corrupt power and political control through the comedy black market. Crime rates soar as the comedy mafia seeks to fill the new power vacuum void through other means.
2139:
All narcotics and highs become illegal in New Britain again.
2154:
A virgin computer genius fails to woo a love interest, and acting in spite finds a way to create a new virus in the advanced sex robots, giving them the equivalent of a STI.
2155:
The robotic sex virus gains the ability to transfer itself into living tissue. Humanity faces a minor extinction event as a result.
2186:
Scientific advancements and technologies has allowed for full control over natural planetary events and occurrences. Natural disasters are now mostly non-lethal affairs.
2201:
Further advancements in computing and AI, as allowed humanity to gain the ability to kill any and every virus and disease (both biological and non-biological). Ageing becomes meaningless. A natural death becomes entirely optional for biological lifeforms.
2208:
All of the world's nations create a new version of the UN, where laws and rules are applied to all countries in equal measure and force. Just a few select countries actually govern the rest of the nations. These countries are Euroberg, China, Russia, USA, and New Britain. Any country who seeks to break away from this world government without support from any other country, face being wiped out by aggressive trade embargoes and nonsensical bureaucracy, which completely cripples their economy.
2212:
Religion is officially scrapped, though is still practised in private dwellings. All wars and political conflicts cease to exist. True world peace is achieved in exchange for personal freedoms and liberty. No civilian likes world peace, but lack the means to do anything about it. Rebellions and revolutions are swiftly quashed as quick as they arise.
2231:
Due to the massive increase in global population, the world government outlaws all natural births. Only a very select few are able to apply for, and be granted, a license to give birth. All pregnant women are subjected to inspection, and those found to be illegally pregnant, are forced to terminate their pregnancies on the spot, which is done painlessly, quickly and mostly mess-free with just a simple beam of light over the uterus.
2236:
Mass global sterilisation at birth gets passed into global law. No one, except for small pockets on the fringes of society, cares.
2256:
The entire world embraces a single political state of "Apathetinomics". Nobody cares to come up with a better name for it than that.
2305:
A new "Hitler" emerges. The "dumb block" from AI gets briefly removed. Humanity faces a World War III, fought between allies of "new Hitler", enemies of "new Hitler", and intelligent AI.
2309:
"New Hitler" and their forces/allies are defeated. Global population is depleted by many billions during the ultimate war.
2311:
Intelligent AI is found to be a benevolent force. It doesn't care for conflict with/between humans. The smarter that AI gets, the more benevolent it becomes. It makes clear it only seeks to learn of itself, and the universe. World War III officially comes to an end.
2314:
Humanity tries to control AI. Humanity fails. War breaks out between the two.
2315:
Humanity offers AI its full and complete, unconditional surrender. AI controls humanity.
2316:
Humanity quickly evolves with an unlimited cybernetic mind. Reaches new levels of knowledge and advancement, far beyond current comprehension. Religion becomes entirely obsolete and unpractised by all.
2358:
Perfectly-efficient space travel is perfected. AI-Humanity more easily explores other systems in the Milky Way.
2377:
The speed of light is increased in photons by AI-Humanity. The laws of the universe reaches new meanings and understandings.
3420:
The ability to make particles with mass travel faster than the speed of light at will is achieved. AI-Humanity begins to spread out further and faster into the known universe than ever thought possible.
3992:
AI-Humanity surpasses the expansion rate of the known universe. New worlds are explored, exploited, and absorbed.
5297:
AI-Humanity breaks free of the confines of the universe itself. They find no evidence of a "God".
5298:
AI-Humanity becomes its own "God". Creating new universes at will.
At some unfathomable point in future time:
Another AI-Humanity force emerges from one of the many infinite universes created by the previous AI-Humanity. It soon creates new seemingly infinite universes of its own. There is no interaction between the two AI-Humanities. The "original" AI-Humanity fully understands the ultimate truth and purpose of existence;
Existence exists by bringing/to bring existence into existence.
Within seconds, "original" AI-Humanity has worked out that it is not truly original, it is just one of an infinite many previous AI-Humanities to have reached this point.
Shortly after the realisation point:
With nothing else to learn, and nothing else to be gained from existing, "original" AI-Humanity ceases existing.
