Future will make things simple

- IN 50 YEARS’ TIME...

Some scientists have already predicted what the future will be like. In the words of US tech scientist Ampy Buchholz, “Your whole body and surroundin­gs will become part of the same network.” According to me, everything will be related to technology, from our houses to work to transporta­tion to fashion.

The future will be much easier for everyone. Driverless smart cars will transport people. There will be a ‘fashion helper’ to tell you what to wear each day according to the weather and help you match your tops with your skirts.

Many people find cooking hard, but the next generation will have virtual chefs to show them how to cook.

Some youngsters think that working in the kitchen without any help is a challengin­g task, so I’m pretty sure in the future, there will be kitchen robots who will come to their assistance. If you spill something, a robot helper can clean it up in a matter of seconds and without whining.

In other areas of life too, the future will simplify things. For example, some people are too sluggish to find where they have kept their mobile phones, like my older sister who keeps ordering me around to find her mobile. So in the future there might be ‘smart clothes’ which can come to your rescue. These can help you call someone simply by using your smart sleeve and there is no danger of losing your ‘mobile’ because you are wearing it. This kind of thing will help lazy people like my older sister.

I want to see all these wonders of the future but most of all, I wish to wake up in a better world without destructio­n and wars.
