Work is an anachronism, a product of the industrial revolution. Start now preparing transition plans for all endangered Second Wave industries. Focusing on human issues: old age, health, loneliness, parenting. Continuous learning. Even with all these measures, a large number of people will not find a new job - therefore, a guaranteed income is needed
Shock, or electroconvulsive therapy (ECT), is a method of acting on the brain of patients using an electric current. It can provide relief for people with severe depression who are not helped by other treatments
The question "what will the world be like in a thousand years?" sounds absurd, because it seems impossible to predict the future even a hundred years ahead. Nevertheless, scientists and futurists make assumptions and seriously consider various options for the future of our civilization - even for a millennium ahead
We are often intimidated with stories of impending catastrophes that will erase the history of mankind
In five years, we will be eating CRISPR-modified food, says the geneticist who had a hand in inventing this incredible gene-editing technology. While ethicists discuss the use of CRISPR in human health, the tool's creator believes it will find better uses in improving our food
Genetic engineering will soon be able to create the smartest people in history, the theoretical physicist and researcher in the field of genomics is sure. The latest technologies make it possible to count on predicting intelligence in the foreseeable future
An expert in the field of neuroscience, psycholinguistics and the theory of consciousness - about the brain, the Internet and robots.Believe it or not, we have looked into the future. No, not by the forces of a fortune teller or an astrologer: we were lucky enough to meet with a professor at St
It is assumed that alien life may exist on Jupiter's moon American scientists hope to find aliens on the ice-covered Europa, one of Jupiter's moons. Aliens refer to microbes in Europe's oceans
NASA planetary scientist Amanda Hendricks and colleagues have named the most suitable celestial body for human colonization in the solar system. It turned out to be Titan - one of the moons of Saturn. Reported by Scientific American
If the brain is just a bunch of biological "wires" and "circuits," then why can't we just upgrade its components to make us better and smarter?
It seems to be relatively recently (and more than forty years have already passed), when Lisa Brown was born in the UK - - the first person conceived by the "in vitro" method
Human cloning has become an extremely popular science fiction plot, and we are already desperate to wait for it to step from the pages and screens into real life
Homo sapiens - dominant species on planet Earth. Only we, people, are able to develop and improve. We develop our society, build society and improve technology. But what is more important is that it has always been
