I've always been a bit speculative towards the "Skyscraper plantation" thing.
Seems like a very ambitious,expensive,complex and inefficient way to grow anything.
Yeah remember when we were supposed to have flying cars like 20 years ago? I never trust this shit because in 2030 people will be laughing their asses off going "Haha these idiots actually thought the future would be like this."
I'm all for technology making our lives better and a little bit easier but I don't want my fridge automatically buying shit, I'd rather go to a super market and buy it myself.
this is super optimistic and people in 2030 are probably laughing their ass off.
i have a feeling people in 2030 would laugh if they saw this video
Never gonna happen.
Husband not working 24/7 and having time to do stuff? What sorcery is that?
No meat plantations? What?
No traffic jams nor accidents? Nope.
Would be nice but... Maybe in 2060.

I can see the water recycling being used in California. We're in a very serious drought

2030 is only 16 years. This is very optimistic.
But optimism is always nice, so whatever. Good video.

But there are flying cars. But nobody buys them because they are fucking expensive.

Hydroponics is actually an incredibly safer, and cheaper way to grow food. You save a ton of water with it.
"my car drives itself"
Fuck that
Just merely having a standard system for all devices to communicate seamlessly would be a nightmare to create, I mean right now its still a challenge to make a bluetooth devices pair automatically, and thats just one standard wireless standard.

I await the day where the car driving AI is good enough to surpass humans to a wide enough degree and scale in driving ability that manual driving is made illegal in any relativly populated areas or for special work. Kills way too many people (and not just the driver), sorry drivers that love the feel.
edit: sure rate me dumb, you selfish fucks. car accidents are one of the leading causes of death in the modern world, and you want to keep driving manually in urban areas and on highways just because you like the feel? Screw that. Maybe you'd change your tune if some stupid fuck rear ends you and breaks your neck.
Kind of going away from living productive lifestyles to living in an app-automated electronic purgatory.

If they let me drive outside of urban centers then I'm all aboard, less chucklefucks that don't know how to drive to get in everyone's way

Doesn't that describe well things ranging from human to human interactions all the way to applying for jobs/university/etc.
For example, in UK the only way to get admitted at Uni is through the ucas website.

AI drivers are already very good
In the testing of the google self drive car, the only 2 incidents were when a human was driving it and when someone else in traffic jammed the car from the back.
All this in 16 years?
Bunch of bullshit if you ask me
I feel like we're at a peak right now, the most change I can see in 20 years is different looking cars.
They forgot the part about robocops

optimistic, but some neat ideas.

Well, some things have peaked, and until certain breakthroughs, they aren't going to move too much further forward. if Quantum computers become a thing outside of lab experiments, we'll be onto some good shit
Processors, for example, aren't getting too much faster, they're just sticking more of them together, instead
Even if any of this did happen, it would only be available to the rich and well-off who wouldn't have to give a shit about most of these things anyways.

Quantum computers are a thing outside of lab experiments - they are also in development, of course, but that doesn't mean we've peaked, even temporarily.
It's a bit like saying that the development of transport technology "peaked" in the era of the horse and cart, just because the engine we know today didn't come around until much later
Where the fuck is my $75 videophone I can buy at wal-mart?
