      Technologically Medically perhaps we would make a lot of progress so there would be more people for sure but also a very wide gap between the rich and the poor

      That’s a really interesting question!

      I definitely think that we will have made a lot of progress, technologically and medically, especially with the use of AI to diagnose various illnesses (it’s already being used to detect some forms of cancer!), but like Bruno said, I still think that there will be a wide gap between rich and poor – those who can afford to own and use the technologies, and those who can’t, and that’s something that needs to be worked on.

      I think it’s almost impossible to tell (I enjoy watching old TV that is set in the future to see what people thought the world would be like – Space 1999 is fascinating). E.g. Star Trek made in the 1960s thought we would be living all over the universe in 250 years, but actually our ‘space exploration’ has dropped since the 1960s.

      Technology is always being developed and improved.
      I hope that there will be more screening tests to identify illnesses earlier to help all of the human population
