No harm in dreaming, but I don't think we should let Hollywood delude us into thinking such a technology will exist 30 years from now. A humanoid that is not absolutely sure if it's human or artificial?
Good entertainment, but a farfetched idea for the year 2049.
I'd say more like 100 years from now if we're still around.
Anyone disagree?
It's not feasible. But the film is a sequel so had to be set within a certain time frame of the original.
shareI long ago stopped even considering that Hollywood could predict the future. They're a joke nowadays.
shareThe original is set in 2019. Don't think we're going to get there in 2 years.
However, in an alternate universe where we had replicants in 2019, having this technology 30 years later is within the realm of believability.
And to think today, 2017, the closest thing we have to a replikant is a sex doll, and they damned sure can't argue about implanted memories. But hey, we gotta start somewhere.

Yep, no flying cars. I think they're impossible anyway as they violate the laws of pysics.
sharefour years ago, I watched a documentary about technology. They covered human cloning and such, and the many doctors interviewed said, "No way. There's LITERALLY about 58,000 things that have to go right in a certain order for us to come close to think about making people." In the next part, it talked about some laws or unwritten rules against human cloning. THEN, they interviewed doctor/scientist types somewhere in Europe that were ALREADY going ahead with attempts to figure it out, against the wishes of doctors and government. They are going to start doing it anyway. They want to be the first to cash in.
Four years ago. Any idea how well it is working now? Will probably go underground, blackmarket before we get real facts.
hey don't worry... at least it's not as dystopian in 2017 as it was in the the original in 2019 ;)
look on the bright side!
