Тексты:

Текст A: There is an opinion that the next major food revolution will be vertical agriculture in which we grow food in AI-controlled vertical buildings rather than horizontal land: hydroponic plants for fruits and vegetables and in-vitro cloned meat. This change is already happening. Green Spirit Farms grows kale, spinach and other greens under LED lights in an old plastics factory near Chicago. Vertical farming, genetically modified crops and synthetic meat will be responses to the growing need for greater food efficiency as populations continue to grow.

Текст B: The Internet has forever changed the way people meet and fall in love. Online dating and location-based services have opened up possibilities that allow people to look beyond their immediate friends, friends of friends, and co-workers. We are becoming more independent and less constrained by the old social norms. This will have an impact on the relationships we form, with fewer people choosing traditional marriage, a rise in official (and unofficial) civil partnerships, and more 
people remaining single for longer, if not forever.

Текст C: Rather than humans working with machines, automation is likely to make some jobs redundant: taxi drivers replaced by self-driving cars; receptionists replaced by robots; doctors outclassed by algorithms that can plug into vast medical databases; and travel agents wiped out by trip-planning, flight-booking web services. Obviously, there will also be new jobs created: the computer engineer/mechanic who fixes the self-driving taxis; programmers; genome mappers and bioengineers; space tour guides; and vertical farmers. Technology will continue to disrupt businesses and eliminate jobs, creating new professions we can’t yet envisage.

Текст D: Prevention is likely to become the focus as we gain greater control of our health information, using self-monitoring biosensors and smart watches to continuously gather fitness data; web apps will crunch the data, syncing to electronic health records. Using these numbers, it will be possible to build a model of your overall health that can predict future problems. So, patients will be able to change lifestyle habits or take designer drugs tailored to their individual DNA. Genome mapping will lead to personalised medicines and 3D-printed replacement organs.

Текст E: Technology underpins everything we’ve looked at so far — food, health, relationships and work. We’re heading into a future where improved battery technology will likely enable better electric cars, personal flying machines, Hyperloop transportation systems, private space tourism and drone delivery services. We’ll probably wear Band Aid-style fitness sensors on our skin, charge our devices using wireless power, let algorithms optimise and guard our homes, and have virtual assistants to help us manage the flood of data and make sense of it.

Текст F: Smart applications are becoming ever more diverse, reliable and easy to use, and they can be tailored with growing accuracy to the specific needs of residents. As a result, smart technologies are increasingly playing a key role in our home architecture. Whether in the computer-controlled optimisation of indoor air quality, the innovative control and operation of shower toilets or the anticipatory and energy-optimised management of room temperature — smart technology is becoming more and more integrated into the way we live.

Текст G: E-hailing rides, car sharing schemes, electric vehicles (EVs), electric scooters, drones and even autonomous buses are already here. Delivery by drone is one of the immediate next advances, intended to reduce delivery van congestion and pollution while allowing us to keep the convenience of home delivery. In 50 years, electric vehicles will outnumber gas-powered, which have been outlawed from city limits due to global warming. Because of new breakthroughs in making cars more intelligent, lighter and stronger, more people are choosing to commute longer distances than ever before.
