How we will think in 50 years

Many things could be different in 50 years. There will be so much more knowledge for everyone to know; especially about technology and how things have developed or will continue to develop over time. Many predictions say that we will be like robots, or that robots may exist in human forms. A few predictions say that there will be robots or machines that can play sports like soccer or football and that they will be able to defeat the opposing team in an amazing way. Expanding on how I think we will think as humans in 50 years; I think we will think the way we always have thought before; with the exception that we will have much more knowledge about technology and many more modern day conviences to make our lives better (or at least hopefully not worse). I believe that humans will have much greater knowledge about the advantages of technology and we will be able to use them to find a cure for Cancer and AIDS, Diabbetes and other deadly illnesses that affect humans today. We also will have brought about new ways to help save the environment and to control population outbreaks and control global warming, all that good stuff. My biggest hope is that technology will become very advanced and that many good advances will come about and that the world will be very much a better place for everyone. My biggest fear about how we will think in 50 years is that we may depend on technology a little too much and it will end up becoming so advanced that it will take over the world completely and we will all become slaves over its power. I hope very much that technology will be smart but not smarter than a human being. As humans, we should not take advantage of the situation too much so that it will become destructive. We need to be able to find a solution to technology advancement so that it only can help us and not hurt us.
