My prediction for the 2030s

This is already underway with Alexa, Siri and etc. Their software uses some form of A.I. and heuristics, machine learning and pattern recognition probably as of now. The employment of this in stuff like personal assistance type work can depend on how far this can go vs. humans as assistants in the timeframe. But stuff like Alexa, Siri and etc. are already learning stuff about users in multiple ways (search suggestions; voice requests; etc.). These setups can use your data to sort of build an "intelligence data network" kind of thing where it can try and familiarize itself with your interests over time based on your interaction/voice data, purchase history and just about anything else. You don't even need manual-type reminders that much as (think with web browsing) like you get targeted ads, but with heuristics or machine learning/pattern recognition these devices use are already sort of like assistants to people in ways by suggesting or telling you of new types of similar products you buy; new products to view; recommendations of news/media/habits/activities; you name it basically.

They're far from Rosie/Rosey in The Jetsons level of capability, but purely for voice interaction/reminders/learning some tidbits about you and your use/data/requests/etc. they're pretty good but still have lots of room to get better.

No thanks. This is just creepy. I can think for myself. What else are you going to do with your brain? Though probably a moot point in my case - I'll be dead by then. Or so old I won't care or partake.

I just switched my TV service to FIOS and when they installed it, they tried to hook me up to the voice-activated remote feature. I told them no and made them give me a manual remote.

We aren't yet evolved enough as a species to do this and have it end well.

We’ll be one step closer to the world in Idiocracy. Japan will have perfected sexbots.
