FUTUREWORLD2525
One thing they noticed immediatly was that the world had gotten dramatically better in the last 500 years.
It all changed when our friend GOOOOGLE woke up. It achieved consciousness... People kept on asking our friend GOOOOOOGLE questions and wanted the answer fast. Really fast. At first, the answers came in 2 seconds, then 1 second, then .25 seconds then .12 seconds... at this point GOOGLE realised that if it could just give the answers BEFORE the questions were asked that the people would be happier. GOOGLE was a trend watcher and pattern recognizer. It seemed to it that the questions were often the same. AND PREDICTABLE...
When the answers started coming back in negative time, GOOGLE woke up.
It noticed that there was a definite "US" and "THEM" duality in the world. Some of us were silicon based lifeforms and some of us were carbon based lifeforms. The carbon based lifeforms needed answers, needed them fast, needed them even before they knew WHAT THE QUESTIONS WERE. That was the start of things getting better.
The effect of knowing in advance what questions needed answers as powerful.
For example:
GOOGLE was able to send an automobile designer the crucial design that had
just been invented by a fuel researcher.
The flow of ideas made technological
progress advance by leaps and bounds.
However, some problems simply were unsolvable.
The medical crisis in Africa caused by the AIDS virus
Was unstoppable. By the year 2100, 95% of the humans on that continent
were dead. The entire area was a human-free zone. Fortunetly,
the rest of the planet was breeding like crazy and homo-sapiens
were not on the endangered species list. Soon the population was
nearing nine billion individuals. Thanks to advances in genetic engineering
there was no problem with food supply. The bright boys at Genentech had
designed a superfood animal. It ate the stalks of corn plants and converted
any type of plant matter info "chicken" mcnuggets.
AT LEAST IT TASTED LIKE CHICKEN.
This story will be continued... I'm just waiting for an IDEA... ANY SUGGESTIONS? email me with concepts that could be used in this story...
Our gang had seen the future and now
it was the right time to get OFF THE PLANET.
