What part?

The first lump's gonna be like now but in hundreds of terrabytes, not gigas. The last one will be the Earth plummeting into the Sun, or heat death of the universe, or some shit like that.


Personally, I'd like to see our species achieve (practical, real) communism as folk like Luxembourg or Allende (not Stalin or your high-school edgy anarchist mate) envisioned it. But just as easily I see us falling back into feudal states with barely the technology to scratch out on asses.

One will take work, the other won't. So.... Yeah.

Great, if you are rich.

If you are poor then not so good.

Yeah, /tinfoil and all that but I imagine the world going to shitter in a few decades' time.

>Massive state sponsored monitoring of all individuals via any electronic mean of communication (oh look, 1984)

>AI constructs determining and classifying people in groups according to psychological parameters data-mined from their communications (probably happening atm)

>"civilized" societies in both first and second world countries.

>China becoming a self sustainable totalitarian superpower (that'll take more than a few decades) and will perhaps start a war, not sure if world wide though.

Perhaps things will go a little more cyberpunk, jews, private megacorporations and zaibatsus owning 99% of the developed world, and groups of anger-fueled, nihilistic and batshit insane individuals utilizing hacktivism and massive rioting as methods of social struggle.

The way democracies find themselves now, autocratic states will surely re-emerge from the past in the near future.

Correction:

>"civilized" societies in both first and second world countries.

is actually
