No, technology won't magically give you eternal life and allow you you explore the stars or live in your perfect virtual reality. Top lol. Where will the energy come from, brainy boy? Will godernment supply everybody with personal nuclear power devices? Who will develop these devices and using what resources?

Face it, there's zero chance of technology developing exponentially. Physics puts a hard limit on what technologies can actually make it out of theory and be manufactured in the real world. Robots will never replace human labor, everybody will die eventually, prolonged space travel will never happen since your "consciousness" is an emergent property of a system that includes your body and your body can't survive space. Further, virtual reality is a hollywood farce (just like "AI") and can never be perfected enough to be worthwhile.

If you haven't converted to catastrophism by now, I feel pity for you.

Fusion, Solar, Wind, Geothermal.

No, but you will be able to buy something like thermoelectric RITEG if regulation change. Its a huge nuclear battery.

Robots will never replace human labor
That is currently happening in China and the workers are pissed.
everybody will die eventually,
Biological immortality isn't impossible with gene editing if you prevent cancer.
prolonged space travel will never happen since your "consciousness" is an emergent property of a system that includes your body and your body can't survive space
So lunar landing could happen because people can't live in vaccuum of space? Thats ridicolous.
Space stations and factories will develop with asteroid mining becoming profitable.

Correct. It's going to be sad seeing all the normaltrash get their expectations curbstomped when the modern iteration of ``AI'' is revealed to be a farce.

Steve Wozniak (a real programmer) was on CNBC the other day talking about how self-driving cars are a fantasy that will never happen.
