In 2054 Capitalism Dies in Space
Manage episode 430455421 series 3432355
When people in space are cut off from Earth an imbalance of owner vs. customers comes to a breaking point. The people in space believe no one is left alive on Earth. As far as they know, the (around) 12,000 in space is all that's left of humanity.
Those living on and near the moon form Luna Nation. Space refugees scattered near Earth must find a way to insure a future for themselves and their children.
AI that in many ways exceed human intelligence play a part in a skirmish for resources. What does it take to outsmart an AI that can make you think you're having a video call with a co-conspirator when it's the AI you are talking to?
An finally, if AI can make a six part miniseries staring Drew Barrymore and Crispin Glover about using DNA banks to spawn a new human race, what parts would the two actors play?
Here's a list of the technology mentioned in the story:
1. Orbital stations and space habitats
2. Micro-gravity adapting robots (e.g., vacuum bots)
3. Smart glass walls
4. Satellite cameras
5. AI assistants (e.g., Butler AI)
6. Augmented Reality (AR) glasses
7. Canal links (brain-computer interfaces)
8. Virtual Reality (VR) equipment
9. Life support systems for space
10. Automated mining and manufacturing in space
11. Fusion-powered spaceships
12. Electric thrusters for spacecraft
13. Legacy tracking systems for spacecraft
14. Ejection systems for spacecraft
15. Motion stabilizers for space suits
16. Emergency beacons in space suits
17. Artificial wombs
18. DNA banks
19. Brain scanning and digital copying technology
20. Robots capable of performing complex tasks
21. Centrifuges for simulating gravity
22. Terraforming technology (theoretical, for Venus)
23. Advanced medical automation
24. Custom cell cultivators
25. Organ printing technology
26. Stasis technology for long space journeys
27. Laser tight-beam communication
28. Rockets and missiles (mentioned as being disabled)
29. Closed-circuit TVs in spacecraft
30. Space construction vehicles (e.g., "spider")
31. Delivery cruisers
32. Research ships
33. Hologram-producing screens
Many of the characters in this project appear in future episodes.
Using storytelling to place you in a time period, this series takes you, year by year, into the future. If you like emerging tech, eco-tech, futurism, perma-culture, apocalyptic survival scenarios, and disruptive science, sit back and enjoy short stories that showcase my research into how the future may play out.
This is Episode 56 of the podcast "In 20xx Scifi and Futurism." The companion site is https://in20xx.com where you can find a timeline of the future, descriptions of future development, and printed fiction.
These are works of fiction. Characters and groups are made-up and influenced by current events but not reporting facts about people or groups in the real world.
