      nobody really knows, but the next big think on the horizon is clean energy and self-driving vehicles.
      Automation and machine learning will help use and mange our finite resources smarter.

      Artificial intelligence. That will be the next major world changing thing that happens i think. Mostly because it will mean we can get machines to do loads and loads of things that we do but don’t need to do. We already have this to an extent, google’s search engine for example is the most widely used artificial intelligence around. It will likely mean that lots of people no longer need to work so we will have to invent new jobs and think about how we provide for people who don’t work because robots do their jobs.
