By 2070, we'll see **smart cities** where AI plays a big role in running everything. AI will control traffic lights to reduce jams, self-driving cars will move safely, and public transport will be super efficient. AI will also help with managing waste and using energy, making cities greener.
A third of the world's population could live in a climate similar to the Sahara in just 50 years, according to a study published in PNAS in 2020. That means 3.5 billion people could live with average temperatures in the mid-80s, “outside of humanity's comfort zone” by 2070.
Their conclusion was that improvements in housing and living standards, and better medical care, like the world's first vaccine that doesn't need refrigeration, will continue to contribute to a lifespan increase -- predicting this to reach 125 years by 2070.
By 2079, the world population may be more than 10 billion. But if our agricultural productivity continues to increase at 1.49% per year (as it has for decades), our global food supply will be even more secure – then we might tackle the injustices that prevent billions from eating well.
Looking ahead in 2075, these predictions offer a glimpse of major changes. A world where economic giants like India, China, and the USA take the lead, where clean energy becomes the norm, and we travel in lightning-fast trains and self-driving cars. It's a future of space vacations and longer, healthier lives.
World in 2070 || How life will be In 2070 ? || Beyond the Curiosity
What will life in 2050 look like?
Robots may become household servants to the higher class as well as middle class, electric cars may develop an entire sensory system composed of several sensory organs, supercomputers may shrink down in size to the size of peas, vertical farming may allow farms to appear in large urban centers (utilizing specially made ...
Ord estimated the probability of our species becoming extinct in the next 100 years to 16-17%, or one in six. He also estimated that the proportion of world GDP that humanity spends on interventions aimed at reducing this risk is less than 0.001%.
By 2070, we'll see **smart cities** where AI plays a big role in running everything. AI will control traffic lights to reduce jams, self-driving cars will move safely, and public transport will be super efficient. AI will also help with managing waste and using energy, making cities greener.
Climate: Adapt Until We Change. In 2023, our planet is in trouble. Two centuries of fossil fuels have led to multiple environmental concerns that we are only now beginning to understand. By 2100, the world's sea level is predicted to rise anywhere between one foot to 12 feet, putting billions of people at risk.
Regardless, a lot can happen in 5,000 years. We might destroy ourselves with warfare or unwittingly ravage the planet with nanotechnology. Perhaps we'll fail to mitigate the threat posed by asteroid and comet collisions. We might even encounter an alien type II civilization long before we achieve that level ourselves.
The Global Challenges Foundation's 2016 annual report estimates an annual probability of human extinction of at least 0.05% per year (equivalent to 5% per century, on average). As of July 29, 2025, Metaculus users estimate a 1% probability of human extinction by 2100.
What countries will be too hot to live in by 2050?
“The highest wet bulb temperature that humans can survive is 35C for about six hours. The places people predict are most vulnerable for being that hot, and thus becoming unliveable are South Asia, the Persian Gulf and the Red Sea by around 2050, and Eastern China, parts of Southeast Asia, and Brazil by 2070.”
In one new paper, Dutch scientists predict that, by 2070, our lifespan may increase to 125 years while beyond that, the sky may be the limit. Their analysis was published Wednesday in the journal Nature.
Here are some of the ways the world could be different in 2070: Artificial intelligence (AI) will be ubiquitous, playing a major role in everything from healthcare to transportation to manufacturing. AI-powered robots and machines will automate many tasks that are currently done by humans.
Interpretation: Newton did not envision a physical end of the world in 2060, but rather a major shift in the world order, potentially signifying the second coming of Christ. Biblical basis: He used calculations based on the Book of Daniel to arrive at this date.
2070 (MMLXX) will be a common year starting on Wednesday of the Gregorian calendar, the 2070th year of the Common Era (CE) and Anno Domini (AD) designations, the 70th year of the 3rd millennium, the 70th year of the 21st century, and the 1st year of the 2070s decade.
With the extinction of life, 2.8 billion years from now, it is expected that Earth's biosignatures will disappear, to be replaced by signatures caused by non-biological processes.
AI Predicts Time Travel Could Be Possible by 2050 What once belonged solely to science fiction may soon edge into reality. Advances in AI, quantum physics, and wormhole theory are pushing the boundaries of what we know about time.
In short: Researchers project that if warming reaches 3 to 4 degrees Celsius by 2070, large parts of the planet could become uninhabitable, triggering social and economic collapse. The study challenges earlier economic models that underestimated climate risk by assuming most industries would remain unaffected.
Human-level AI by 2040, and intelligence far beyond human by 2050 was predicted in 1998 by Moravec, revising his earlier prediction. A median confidence of 50% that human-level AI would be developed by 2040–2050 was the outcome of four informal polls of AI researchers, conducted in 2012 and 2013 by Bostrom and Müller.
Mid-2027 – Artemis III, the second crewed mission of the Artemis Program and first lunar landing on the Moon since 1972, is scheduled to launch no earlier than this time. World Youth Day 2027 will be held in South Korea. The 2027 Cricket World Cup will take place in South Africa, Zimbabwe and Namibia.
While, as shown with creatures such as hydra and Planarian worms, it is indeed possible for a creature to be biologically immortal, these are animals which are physiologically very different from humans, and it is not known if something comparable will ever be possible for humans.
NASA is advancing many technologies to send astronauts to Mars as early as the 2030s. Here are six things we are working on right now to make future human missions to the Red Planet possible.
