What do you have planned for next week? And next year? Have you ever thought about what you will be doing in 250 million years? Probably not. But you might be wondering what the Earth will look like then. 250 million years is enough for its face to change as well. So many years ago, a meteorite flew to our planet, wiped out 90 percent of all living things and left an imprint in the form of a crater in Antarctica. But that is the past.

The Frankfurt Motor Show presented yet another very interesting electric concept. Apparently, BMW plans to send a bunch more fully electric cars to the market. The presented concept may one day carry the i4 designation. The concept is called BMW i Vision Dynamics, and with its arrival, even Tesla, which until now has not had a real competitor for its Model 3, shook its pants.
We are in an age of extraordinary progress. Every 10 years, due to progress, society changes in the same way that it changed in 100 years. This is also why the world will change fundamentally in the next 10 years. Primarily due to the extraordinary globalization of services, trade and media, but actually mostly due to the emergence of artificial intelligence, which will be integrated into everyday life. It will change the world the way electricity once did. However, some occupations, which could still be naively concluded to be promising, will disappear completely within 10 years.
The leading people of the world's leading brands have something in common. A 'good nose' as we like to say. That is also why they are in these places, because without feeling, instinct or that sixth sense for the future, they would not be as successful as they are. Dieter Zetsche, CEO of Mercedes-Benz, recently offered his vision for the next 20 years in an interview. Let's see what he had to say.
Science brings fresh discoveries and news every day. Many of them are not even well understood by ordinary people, but this one might attract us. At the Health and Science University in Portland, USA, scientists led by Shoukrat Mitalipov tried to use the CRISPR technique to change the genetic record in one-cell embryos. Until now, American scientists have more or less enviously observed the development in this field from afar. But that is no longer the case.
Palm trees and coconuts are synonymous with tropical places, sandy beaches and deep blue seas. Add a hammock and paradise is in front of us. But if you're lying under a palm tree in 2017, the Wi-Fi network and the charging unit also 'belong' to you, don't you think? So now we will talk about different palm trees. O smart ones.
The BMW Motorrad department has prepared a new motorcycle concept for us, which suggests that the future will belong to bold ideas. Concept Link presents a fully electric motorcycle that will completely redefine the bond between a motorcyclist and his two-wheeler.
There have been rumors for quite some time that public transport is in need of a thorough overhaul. Outdated systems, dilapidated infrastructure, lack of adaptation to the needs of modern man, etc. - all these are reasons for the initiative that something needs to change in this area. Partnership between NextFuture Transportation and Globetouch Inc. promises solutions. Are you wondering what kind?
Volkswagen presented an interesting concept called Sedric in Geneva. This heralds the brand's autonomous and electric future. In it, you will look for the steering wheel and pedals in vain, because it is a vehicle of the fifth level, i.e. the highest level of car autonomy, which allows the complete absence of a driver. The Germans want to reach this level by 2025.
Are classic delivery days counted? There are drones, there are autonomous vehicles. When we put it all together, man is really redundant. This was also realized by Ford, which brought a study of an autonomous Ford Autolivery delivery vehicle equipped with drones to the mobile phone fair MWC 2017.
Ford presented its vision of the future in the field of mobility at the Detroit Motor Show (NAISA 2017). This is reflected in the city of the future - the City of Tomorrow - which will be more fluid, less congested and, accordingly, more environmentally friendly thanks to autonomous and electric vehicles, car sharing and the system of connected vehicles.
Not only The Simpsons, but also many Hollywood movies have proven to be prophetic. Below, let's take a look at the movies that correctly predicted the future. Therefore, let's go back in time, to the time when tablets, Skype, touch screens, etc. also called science fiction...
