Weird Wide Web - AI might make it possible to speak to the dead | News Article

It is predicted that by 2077, scientific knowledge will make it possible for the living to speak to the dead.

Dailystar has reported that by 2077, scientific knowledge may have increased dramatically from the present day. Chips may be integrated in everything – including humans – with artificial intelligence treating disease, ending hunger and even colonising space.

A science documentary, 2077 - 10 Seconds to the Future, Mutation, takes a look at some of the most weird and wonderful predictions for what could happen in 2077.

Nick Bostrom from the University of Oxford said Artificial Intelligence (AI) will impact all sectors, from discovering new drugs and treating disease to "solving the challenge of producing economic goods so that people don't have to live in need". It could also lead to more "meaningful" entertainment in terms of games, sports, arts, music as well as the colonisation of space.
