Even pure fantasy is built from reality.
We cannot reconstruct what we have not experienced.
This boundary is what protects us from pure hallucination.
————————
It is the difference between a mind grounded in the world and a system generating things from nothing.
The past has a ground truth, constructed by micro organisms that converted poisonous gas into oxygen, which we all rely on for our existence.
Your reconstruction may well be faithful to what happened, or it can drift, and felicity measures the distance.
The future has no such ground.
You can lead a human to knowledge, but you cannot make he or she think.
When you imagine the future you are superimposing your existence, your expectations, your experiences, into an arrangement that has not happened, with nothing to correct you but the realism of the pieces themselves.
A child born in the next decade will be living in an artificial generated world.
A post human era .
Instead of carrying smartphones, people might integrate technology directly into their bodies.
Brain-computer interfaces could allow us to share thoughts, memories, or skills instantly without speaking.
The idea that a person’s consciousness could be transferred into a digital network, allowing them to exist without a physical body at all.
If human ever managed to leave the planet over thousands of years, living in low gravity or under different suns would naturally cause humans to evolve into entirely different species.
All human comments appreciate. All like clicks and abuse chucked in the bin.
